My husband and I had a great stay at Antonio’s place. The location of the studio apartment was perfect - within easy to walking distance to all the sights, quiet, and near good restaurants, bars, and coffee shop. There is a fantastic craft coffee shop with delicious pastries call Ditta Artigianale just around the corner and the best gelato we had in Florence was in the little square right outside the apartment.
The A/C worked very well and the bed and pillows were surprisingly comfortable. Even the the area has quite a bit of night life, the apartment was very quiet (I am a light sleeper).
Antonio’s communication was excellent and he even left a helpful list of recommendations for us!
A FEW THINGS TO KNOW:
the apartment is the 3rd floor of an old building and there are about 50 steep and narrow stairs leading up to it. It was a bit challenging to get our luggage up and down but other than that it didn’t bother us. I would imagine this is true of other air bnbs in Florence.
Their wasn’t really a proper comforter/duvet for the bed. Just a sheet and two small fleece blankets. We slept great but were a bit chilly a few of the nights.
I would happily stay at Antonio’s place again if we return to Florence. You will not find a better value!
