Perfecto!
Staying with Maria and Gianni was more like staying with family than it was staying at an Airbnb. Upon arrival, Gianni sat with us for over 45 minutes, telling us the ins and outs of his city (even providing marked up maps and cards for specific restaurants to check out). He is incredibly friendly and communicative (not to mention fluent in English). The space itself is immaculate. When you walk into the building, you are immediately transported back to the Renaissance. The high ceilings, huge doors, and metal gate are so unique to the experience of Italy, and this space provides just that: the Italian experience. The frescos on the ceiling are reminiscent of the Uffizi (which is only a short walk away). Staying here is like staying at the museum itself. The amenities worked flawlessly, and the space truly felt like a home. The location of the space is incredible. Being so centrally located, there are countless activities and sites to see with only a short walk in any direction.
We would happily spend another week with Gianni and Maria and would highly recommend anybody looking for a great time in Florence to reach out and stay with them.
