The apartment was as pictured on the dashboard. It is beautiful and comfortable for the most part. Andrea was very kind to welcome us and especially help us with the luggage. There were unexpectedly forty steps to contend with heavy luggage.
The apartment was decorated with many beautiful paintings some by Andrea and his father. The bed was comfortable and Andrea had some welcome treats for us which were much appreciated. The location was ideal for us, close to the Mercato Centrale, train station and many of the sights. It was in a residential area and Andrea was right next door in case of anything. We were able to walk to restaurants and shops, as well as the sights. In terms of the apartment, Florence can get quite cool in the evenings, I would like to have had some control over setting the temperature in the apartment but many warm blankets were provided. And the showers were challenging but overall we had a wonderful stay.
If you want to be in the heart of Florence and stay in an authentic artist's loft, this is the place to stay!
Thank you Andrea for your hospitality.
