andrea/alessandro’s place is neatly tucked away on a quiet street and it feels very safe and homey, just like you’re living like the locals. please keep in mind it is located on the third floor for those that aren’t stairs accessible.
we had some delay issues on our arrival while communicating with ale and he was extremely patient while waiting for us to arrive. he met us at the airbnb to let us in and helped with our luggage upstairs. he explained the keys and showed us our location while providing a map and gave us some local tips! there was even a huge bottle of water (SUPER HOT IN JULY IN FLORENCE) that was much appreciated and a cute little set up for breakfast that was provided.
the place is CLEAN which is hard to say for most airbnb’s and has been thoroughly upgraded to be the most comfortable. the big bedroom window was charming and the rainfall shower was extremely soothing. the best thing was that there was AC which was difficult to find in europe and it was so nice to come back to a cool room during the hot summer days of florence.
the place is a short walk the famous duomo and local restaurants, also a 10 minute walk to the train station which we later took to venice.
if i really had to complain about one thing it would be the wifi signal is sightly weak from the bedroom and often times i had to get out of the room to reconnect. but this wasn’t a
major issue as we were rarely in the room.
otherwise i highly recommend staying here if your stay allows you!
