The loft in Santo Spirito was perfect for my stay in Florence. Although I was only there 3 nights, I would have loved to stay longer and enjoy the surroundings even more than I did. Having been to Florence a year ago, my trip this time was intended to be off the beaten track. This location fulfilled that intent through location alone. The loft was a bonus. It’s a great big space with everything available to the resident including Modestino’s consistency in checking in, sharing recommendations and being open to questions. He is an attentive host without being intrusive. The recommendations he provided were excellent from the cafes to the restaurants. I had one of the best cappuccinos of my trip in the square. As well, 20% off at osteria Santo Spirito was offered and knowing I would go there in advance, it was excellent to have that discount.
Would have loved to see his band perform but if you are in the loft’s environment you are sure to be influenced by his music and passion for it nonetheless.
As a single female, the loft and location felt exceptionally safe. I was up early to run and out late to spend time in the piazza, with no concerns.
I cannot emphasize enough the location of this loft and the comfort it provides. I will be lucky to return and stay here again.
