This is a superb place for the more adventurous traveler who wants a real "experience". As the other reviews mention, it is an old building with quite a few flights of stone stairs (no obese persons or with leg issues or heavy luggage need apply!) and the flat is a glorious mix of decor and levels (3 levels, in effect), with lots of stairs and quirks. A step back in time to the days when Air BnB was really people's homes and not flats purchased for tourist rental with sterile "international" decor. The roof top terrace is better than most, with a lovely view of the Pitti and Borboli Gardens hillside. The small top room next to the terrace is a great hideaway bedroom. The fact that the main bedroom and the lounge open to the centre building well was a real plus for light, air and visual impact. That Alfonso has put numerous plants around these windows gives a lovely touch. I really liked staying away from the tourist hordes in the historical centre, but still being a close walk away from everything. If you like something different, don't hesitate to book here.
