Pros: Federico’s place is 5 mins walk to all the goo restaurants and 10 mins walk to Duomo and other places to visit. Nice and neat place. Easy check in and check out, good Wi-Fi. Fast communication with host.
Cons: Smaller than it looks. It much natural light inside the place. No AC in living room even though it says AC in every room in the listing.
I searched for a place with washer and dryer because we packed light. In the listing it showed dryer. But it didn’t have one. When I asked Federico, he said to dry them in the open area inside the house where AC us it is. That place is an open area inside the house but it’s dirty. It rained when we left our clothes there to dry. That was a big issue with us because now we had to wash our clothes then put them in the living room for them to dry. We couldn’t use living area for us to sit. We had to come home early so we can wash clothes then spread them in the living and dinning area for them to dry over night. That time should’ve been spend out enjoying Florence.
No oil, salt, and pepper even though it said in the listing it did. We eat home cooked healthy breakfast at home in the morning. Federico’s reply was because of hygiene he doesn’t keep oil, salt, and pepper. He shouldn’t have it in the listing he doesn’t have those items.
On one restroom flush wasn’t working so I texted Federico, he was quick to reply. He said he will send someone to look at it. That evening someone showed up and showed us that flush’s button has to be pushed in certain way for it to work. Time and effort could’ve been saved if that information was provided instead of someone coming to show us how to push the button.
Overall: it’s a nice place, close to everything you need. Great restaurants close by. Our issues with Federico’s place was due to our specific wants. But if you don’t care about dryer, and are not planning to cook at home at all then you will love this place. Federico was always there to answer questions.
