Our stay at Barbara and Maurice's place was absolutely fabulous. My Husband and I were celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary with a 6 night stay in Florence. We had never used AirBnB before, so we were a little anxious about what it would be like. Barbara communicated with me SO well before we left for our trip. She made me feel more comfortable about going there.

When we arrived, we used the directions Barbara had sent us from the train station - only a 4-5 minute walk! Maricio greeted us there and showed us around the block and bought us a cappuccino. Even though his english isn't 10/10 his personality was.

The actual flat was perfect for us. It really became OUR HOME when we stayed there. Everything that we needed was provided, from a bottle of natural water (since you have to pay for water in Italy), toiletries, to a map of florence, and other "tours" and info packets.

The bed was a little hard, and the walls were a little thin, so we could hear the late night "bar crew" as we called them, outside the door. But somedays after site seeing - we were so tired to even notice the outside noise.

All in all, the flat was perfect for our stay. We enjoyed it very much - especially the shower - the Europeans have the best showers!! Who knew?
