Honestly this house came up as the most surprising choice. I was looking for something near the train station but was not liking any options, and the houses near the old town were not great or were too far from the station. I accidentally stumbled upon this listing and was not sure what to expect. I just went on the basis of reviews rather than pictures. Honesty pictures don’t justify the beauty of the house. Some noteworthy points while booking this house:
Locality: it’s 13 mins walking to station and 15 mins walking to Florence cathedral, 20 mins from Ponte Vecchio. You don’t need any bus to travel. We stayed for 4 days and we reached everywhere by foot.
Building: absolutely safe and secure building and house.
House: this is the best bit. A plush house considering the area. Very well designed, extremely spacious according to European airbnbs, thoughtfully kept some breakfast items and sweets for us, very clean and the bathroom was extremely neat. It felt like we were staying in a 5 star hotel.
Host: they were extremely communicative and responsive. They also offered us to keep our luggage in their holding bay for late check out.
If you are in Florence, without having second thoughts, please go ahead and book this house!
If I could give 7 stars, then I would have! :)
