Gerardo was a fantastic host!! Very thoughtful, responsive, and he had great recommendations for our time in Florence. He met us at the apartment and helped us in with our bags, then gave us a tour of the apartment to ensure we knew how to use everything from the stove to the AC.
The apartment itself was wonderful. It was spacious and clean with a great view of the Duomo, walking distance to everything, and very close to the river and Ponte Vecchio; just as the listing says. Gerardo had coffee and a coffee maker, and we were also able to do our laundry which was much needed on an extended trip through Italy. He also helped us book our trains and taxis which was very helpful and kind.
It was the perfect jumping off point to explore the city, and ultimately propose to my fiancé!! I’d give a 10/5 if I could! Highly recommend.
