Clara was present and welcomed us with a nice map of the city and her favorite sites/restaurants. She was very helpful right then and there. The Location of the place is very good for the price. the local scene is quite charming and has the best food! As for the apartment, a few things.

Pros:

- It did have hot water and a nice modern bathroom and warm towl rack etc.

- Little table in the bedroom to hang out and play cards, etc.
good lighting

- Awesome location to sights, local people, local food, etc.

Cons:

- The bed is pretty bad. It sinks in a little in the middle and I always had trouble sleeping. It is a very cheap mattress and frame and makes a whole lot of noise (full disclosure) right above the common area of the apartment.

- The street can be really loud because it is right on one of the main streets with buses/ambulance/trash trucks.

- We had breakfast the first day and then it was gone, and never replaced during our stay. Not a big deal, but with such strict rules about breakfast and the kitchen, at least have breakfast like you said.

- the listing doesn't mention that there are two other Airbnb rooms right next to yours. This is not much of a homestay with hosts as it is Daniele and Clara running a hotel. Not a big deal and maybe a way to meet other travelers, but THIS SHOULD BE MENTIONED IN THE AD FOR THE ROOM.

Just wanted to be honest and help them to improve their listing. All in all, we loved Florence and the location was as good as I could ask for.

thank you,
Adam and Danielle
