We loved Raffaella & Michelangelo's place!! We extended our stay after having met them and finding out much more about what Florence has to offer! We spent 4 days exploring and enjoying everything. We had a car but really only needed it for when we took a drive to explore a wineries in Chianti and Siena. Otherwise, there is so much to do and see within walking distance or local taxis if you wish. As soon as we arrived, Raffaella and Michelangelo greeted us with such excitement and genuine passion for their community. They thoughtfully walked us through a city map and all the must dos, restaurants, etc. In addition, they knew we had been traveling many hours and were arriving toward the latter part of the evening and we were greeted to many snacks, bottle of wine, and more!!
One helpful hint: Raffaella has a great list she gives guests of things to do, places to eat, etc. so be sure to call before you decide to go... otherwise depending on the day of the week, it may be closed.
This place was by far one of our favorites during our 2 week Italian honeymoon adventure (we did half AirBNB and half hotels while traveling). If we could give 10 stars, we most definitely would! Enjoy your stay and be sure to check out Acqua Al 2, Bitter Bar, Trattoria Nella & Ristorante Buca Mario before you leave!
