My wife and I stayed at Alberto's B&B for three nights in the middle of our tour of Europe, and it was a wonderful place to stay. We picked this place largely because of the nice things other guests said about Alberto himself, how helpful he was, etc., and it was all true.

Alberto arranged space for us in a nearby garage to leave our car during our visit. He was easy to communicate with throughout the process of setting up the reservation and getting to the apartment. He met us at the door at street level when we arrived and insisted on lugging our huge suitcase up the three flights of stairs to the apartment (what a hero!). He gave us a map of the city and circled specific recommendations for restaurants, sights to see, gelaterias, and so on. We had arrived late on a Saturday evening, and Alberto knew just where to send us for dinner (Il Latini - fantastic!).

The room itself was really good, too. Nice bathroom, comfy bed, great shutters for the windows (if you like it dark at night, you'll be happy!). You'll hear the occasional siren in the street, but it never interrupted my sleep.

Alberto was great about breakfast, too. He arranged for gluten-free options due to my wife's allergy, which was very kind (and tasty).

Finally, the location of the place can't be beat. I guess Florence is pretty compact, so no matter where you stay you can walk everywhere easily, but still, it was awesome to be right in the middle of everything.

Thank you, Alberto! We had a great visit.
