This is a fabulous place to stay. Giampaolo is a very kind and welcoming host. Even though the ad mentions the many steps (which is typical for all apartments in Florence) I decided to come here with a large suitcase - it’s manageable (if a little tiring) and Giampaolo was kind enough to help. The place itself has everything you might need. The room has two twin beds and is very clean. There’s a fridge in the room so you can store your own things there and be able to get food without leaving the room! You have your own bathroom as well with toilet and shower. There is air conditioning which works very well as well as a large window so there was never a problem with being too hot or cold. Also the wifi worked very well. There was also a lot of space for me to store clothes, both wardrobe and 3 drawers as well as two bedside cabinets. Location wise, this is great too - it’s a short walk to ponte vecchio where there’s also a decent supermarket (sapori e dintorni). Regarding communication, this was excellent too and Giampaolo gave me his number so I could communicate with him very quickly and so that if I had any problems (which I didn’t) he could help me quickly. This helped facilitate a quick meeting when I arrived at the house coming from Florence airport. Would highly recommend!
