We appreciated very much that Paolo met us at the train station and walked us to the accommodation (< 10 minute walk). His online map and local tips were spot on. We enjoyed a wonderful Florentine steak and truly the best view of the city (even in the rain). The osteria across the street had a great 10 euro lunch special (another great recommendation from Paolo). Location was great for traveling in and out of Florence by train and easily walkable to all of Florence's tourist spots. One nice extra touch was that the outlets had extra plug-in spots, so you didn't have to unplug lamps to charge your phone by the nightstand which we've had to do at other Airbnb locations. He also has USB plug-in! The bed was very comfortable. Two quick notes: the toilet faces the bathroom wall with minimal space for your legs when seating - not a major issue at all, as you can sit a little sideways for more leg room and the soundproof windows aren't completely soundproof and we could here neighbors singing through the walls (not after 10 pm) - we slept well because the bed was very comfortable and we were exhausted from our explorations.
Overall, Paolo is an excellent host. We were extremely pleased with the accommodations and his recommendations. Thanks to him, all of our best meals in Italy were in Florence. Would happily stay at any of his properties in the city again.
