Aviv was an incredible host. He made arrangements for me to check in early, and he gave me some great information about nearby restaurants, markets, etc. His flat is very quaint, and the location is incredible. It’s the perfect home base for exploring the city. I don’t think I walked more than 15-20 minutes to get anywhere I wanted to go in Florence on foot.
Aviv helped me figure out getting a very early taxi, and he was always very responsive and helpful to any message I sent him.
The flat was clean, well-stocked, and the bed was the most comfortable one I’d slept on after staying in three other Airbnbs around Europe. As a woman traveling solo, I felt completely safe in the flat and walking around the neighborhood, even at night.
