We stayed here for two weeks and this Airbnb is a double winner- fabulous host and a wonderful apartment! Marco went above and beyond to assist us including helping us with our luggage and providing information on how to receive an Amazon package. He was excellent at communication and very committed to being a super host.
The apartment is fantastic, one of the best Airbnb’s we’ve stayed in, from the artistic decor to the perfect layout. It’s quite, bright and beautiful. Marco and his mom remodeled this apartment and did an outstanding job- no detail is overlooked. In terms of the nitty gritty, the shower was large with lots of hot water and good water pressure; the bed was very comfortable and the kitchen appliances easy to use.
The area, Santa Croce is a great location for exploring Florence. It’s not in the crazy touristy center but everything is within a 10-20 minute walk so it’s convenient but not overwhelmed with people. We found a local expresso and sandwich spot at the end of the block (Cafe Mario), a wonderful gelato shop called Gelateria La Carraia and number of good restaurants and fun shops.
I would highly recommend this gem to any one visiting Florence. Thank you Marco!
