THIS is the place to stay in Florence! Seriously. If you have a few options bookmarked and you’re trying to decide, you can delete the other options. It’s beautiful, in a great location, and Patrizia is a gifted host. It felt like being at home!
Besides being Instagram perfect and just a short walking distance from David, there are so many small details that made this a superior Airbnb experience: Patrizia is great at communication and responds very quickly. She kindly worked with us when we had transportation issues. She includes the city tax in the Airbnb bill so you don’t have to worry about counting exact change when it’s late and you’re exhausted from traveling (had to do that at a different Airbnb). Patrizia also provides a lovely personal printed guide to Florence with suggestions for food and sight seeing. She had Netflix, which was nice for chilling after a busy day walking. AND not the least, she prepared a nice light snack for us upon arrival! One more thing: laundry!
Little tip - Do take a taxi your first time there since it can be a little confusing. After our first day, we downloaded a Google map for Florence and, as long as you didn’t exit the app, it would show your location on the map even without WiFi. 👍🏼
