This was our first experience with airbnb.com and it was PERFECT! Loredana was there when we arrived by taxi to the apartment. It was a very easy check-in. She showed us around and showed us how everything worked and how things were done....this was very helpful because living for 2 weeks in Florence, Italy is very different from living in the USA...from recycling to how the washing machine works!! They had maps and lists of nearby restaurants and markets with directions on how to get there.
The apartment was clean and newly remodeled. The open floor plan was very comfortable. We even hosted 2 dinners for our daughter and her friends who are studying in Florence. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment is in a very quiet part of town. There was some noise from the neighbors, but nothing out of the ordinary. The kitchen was fully stocked and we had everything we needed to cook our meals.
