This has been the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had- absolutely no question. I can’t say enough of how amazing this gorgeous apartment is, alongside Maria’s thoughtful and helpful guidance every step of the way. From the very beginning before I even got to Florence, Maria was gracious enough to help me figure out what requirements were needed Covid wise to enter into Italy. She and Paolo (her wonderful husband) greeted me at the front door and toured me around the fantastic apartment that is even better in person!! They sweetly left a traditional Italian holiday cake and wine to welcome me. The apartment was spotless and equipped with absolutely everything you might think you need. I originally was supposed to stay for 5 weeks and extended for 10 more days because of how much I loved Florence, which is mostly in part to this gorgeous home and Maria and Paolo’s kindness. I loved it so much so that I booked it for the entire month of April. There was not one thing I would change about the apartment. I had no trouble at all with hot water or any appliance working. Maria gave me fantastic recommendations and each one was better than the last. Lastly- the location is UNBEATABLE! Being a 15 second walk from the view of the Ponte Vecchio is like living in a dream. I am so grateful to have found this Airbnb, and even more thankful to have a support system of Maria and Paolo. ❣️ If you don’t book this apartment, you and truly missing out.
