Maria Elisa made us feel extremely welcome, coordinating with us every step of the way prior to the trip, making quick adjustments when our flight was delayed and met us personally when we arrived to explain the house rules. She was delightful from beginning to end.

The apartment was even better than the photos. It was clean, very spacious and elegantly appointed. And when the description said "a few steps away from the Duomo," it was literally that. The major plus is that there's great shopping right on the same street, with Prada at the ground floor of the building, Gucci across and Panerai just around the corner. It's so close to all the major tourist attractions as well as great restaurant and mercato options. I'm so thankful I found Maria Elisa's place on airbnb.
