I look forward to returning to Florence and staying here again. I doubt one could find better lodgings in Florence than this beautiful apartment. Andrea has indeed set the bar high with his apartment.
Andrea was a most gracious host, helping us with our luggage on arrival and departure and organising a taxi for us upon leaving. He was most generous in his breakfast provisions and other consumables. Andrea has provided absolutely every single thing you could need or want for, whilst on holidays in his apartment. The apartment is spacious, exceptionally clean and well kept. Pictures online are true to life, and it seemed more spacious than described.
Centrally located, we were able to walk everywhere including the Academy to see David, the Pitti Palace, the old bridge, the duomo of course and Santa Croce to name a few. It’s directly opposite the Bargello museum, which you must visit when you stay.
The air conditioning worked exceptionally well in the heat that Florence was experiencing, with zones for different areas of the apartment. It was a welcome relief after many a hot day of sightseeing.
Restaurants abound nearby and it’s an easy walk to find somewhere nice for dinner, Andrea has thoughtfully also provided some local suggestions.
Once you stay here, be prepared to be disappointed in all other Airbnbs, as the standard is extremely high here.
