Reviews

  • Reviewer: Lendsy

    Comments: He's a very nice guy and the place was in a convent area. I would stay again.. his place is in a nice quiet area.

  • Reviewer: William

    Comments: It was actually more than I expected. Like my own mini apartment. The C train was a 9min walk from the place so that made it really convenient and simple to get to Manhattan and things. I can't complain, I had a really good time in NYC and this space aided in my overall trip being a smash!

  • Reviewer: Sharod

    Comments: Great place

  • Reviewer: Tony

    Comments: Great place, great neighbourhood, definitely would stay again

  • Reviewer: Dorothy

    Comments: Giovanni made our first visit to New

  • Reviewer: Amanda

    Comments: My husband enjoyed his stay. He was pleasantly surprised by the animals (2 turtles and a bird). And Giovanni's dad, Mr. Peter, who lives upstairs was very kind and accommodating. Giovanni is great at responding quickly to messages-very nice host!

  • Reviewer: Cassandra

    Comments: Giovanni was a great host and the space was incredible. The room was beautiful and spacious and the bed was large. The location was perfect. A nice brownstone street close to food and transportation. I will be staying there again and highly recommend it to anyone.

  • Reviewer: Ashia

    Comments: Giovanni's home was extremely welcoming! Upon arrival he treated us with warm welcomes. During my stay I felt right at home. Giovanni was amazing with communication and gave us space to relax and enjoy our stay. He was very accommodating and provided a comfortable set up for our two day stay! I would definitely recommend his home if you're looking for a quiet weekend in the heart of Brooklyn.

  • Reviewer: Rachel

    Comments: I really really enjoyed staying at Giovanni's. It had so much space to myself, and I felt secure at his place as well. Would stay again!

  • Reviewer: Darwish

    Comments: Great place to stay. Close to everything you need. Metro station is a short walk and the ride to Manhattan takes around 30-40 minutes on the local Metro line and shorter on the Express line. Delis and local grocery stores are abound and just about on every corner in addition to Chinese, Pizza, Fried Chicken. There is a really nice play ground for kids a couple of minutes walk. Our daughter enjoyed playing there, Ride to Airport is quick (about 45 min in rush hour) and can be done using Metro, but best to use Uber/Lyft.

  • Reviewer: Terri

    Comments: What a great place for our family to stay! Giovanni was friendly, helpful and a great guy to work with. The location was perfect for us. Loved it!

  • Reviewer: Michael

    Comments: Giovanni was extremely helpful through out the entire stay, my wife and I enjoyed our time and the neighborhood. The home was nice and very accommodating, we would stay again !!

  • Reviewer: Alexandra

    Comments: Giovanni's place is one of the best places to stay in Brooklyn. His home is very clean, comfortable, and modern. He has a lot of amenities in his home to help make you feel comfortable. Full equipped kitchen and bathroom, beautiful wooden floors in his bedroom and living room area, and he let us play with his Nintendo 64. Wifi and air conditioning was also provided. He himself was a wonderful host to me and my guests. His home is close to convenience stores and the subway, and he is near a lot of fun places to eat in Brooklyn. Overall, he was a wonderful host, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend his place.

  • Reviewer: Nakeya

    Comments: Giovanni is very polite and helpful and makes you feel like family, instead of a, guest!

  • Reviewer: De'Ane

    Comments: Giovanni was a great host, he went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable. The place was amazing, would stay here again the next time I'm in Brooklyn!!!

    Comments: Like the home and like the host. Would not mind staying there again.

  • Reviewer: Tina

    Comments: Great location as it was a quick walk to the subway and there's a store/deli on almost every corner. Much quieter than expected and very calming after spending the day in Manhattan.

  • Reviewer: Christopher

    Comments: Everything you could reasonably ask for in a Bedford Stuyvesant apt.convenience at every corner.

  • Reviewer: George

    Comments: A good place to stay in Bed Stuy

  • Reviewer: Nicolas

    Comments: Fue una excelente experiencia la estadía en lo de Giovanni, muy buen anfitrión. Nuestro vuelo llego temprano y pudimos dejar las valijas e irnos a recorrer. El departamento está cerca de la línea de subte C q te permite ir a Manhattan sin ningún problema. El barrio muy lindo (de película) y muy seguro. El departamento es amplio, con todas las comodidades. Muy bien equipado (destacó que pudimos hacer utilidad de lo q es lavarropas y secarropas, clave para quienes viajamos livianos de equipaje) en cuanto a limpieza todo limpio y en orden. Giovanni un genio! Una persona super amable y servicial!! Próximo viaje a NY definitivamente volvería a hospedarme en lo de Giovanni.-

  • Reviewer: Janine

    Comments: Giovanni is a great host! Beautiful, comfy place not too far from little grocery stores, the subway and coffee shops

  • Reviewer: Tamara

    Comments: Giovanni met all of the expectations of an ideal host! My friends and I arrived to NY way before the check-in time and he still allowed us to drop our bags off and get settled. In addition, his conversation was great! Giovanni is very funny and willingly gave us tips on places to go and went the extra mile to contact family members for suggestions as well. He responds to messages in less than a minute every time and stayed out of our hair during our visit. The place is nice also. We were out and about so we did not use many of the appliances but the kitchen is up to date. The bathrooms were acceptable too but on the main floor bathroom, the drainage in the sink was slow but it wasn't anything we could not deal with. The shower on the main floor's pressure is weak too so we preferred to use the basement bathroom for showers; that one works very well! Aside from this, Giovanni did an excellent job with providing clean linen, giving suggestions, and making sure we were comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if I visit NY in the future. Oh yeah, there was 5 of us and we slept very comfortably with the space provided (there were 2 beds, an air mattress, and a sofa bed). There's street parking as well but it was VERY easy to park whenever we returned from being out.

  • Reviewer: Kathy

    Comments: it was a nice place to stay, its a verry friendly man and gives you a good feeling ,highly recommended!

  • Reviewer: Isabelle

    Comments: Giovanni est très accueillant et prévenant. Son logement est en tous points conforme à la description, le quartier est sympa et les transports facilement accessibles pour visiter toute la ville. Merci encore Giovanni.

  • Reviewer: Joel

    Comments: Great host, nice location close to C train. Pretty good pizza 2 buildings down and a great bakery called CakeBoi a few minutes away walking. Very comfortable space and you can't beat being able to pull out the N64. Would definitely stay again!

  • Reviewer: Liliana

    Comments: Giovanni's place was perfect for my husband and I. He made us feel at home and because he is a born and raised local he made sure that none of our questions were left unanswered. Giovanni made sure to check in with us in the middle of our trip to make sure all was well and he gave great advice as to how to get around on the subway and even went as far as suggesting restaurants that we never would have found on our own. I highly recommend staying at his apartment in Brooklyn, the location is perfect as the subway is only a brief 10 min walk. Giovanni's hospitality made our first trip to NY that much more special! :)

  • Reviewer: Sophonie

    Comments: Giovanni is ABSOLUTELY amazing. The place is super clean and such a beautiful house. Giovanni is extremely helpful and extremely patient in answering all questions and problems. With this being my first Airbnb he was patient and very kind every step of the way. He makes you feel extremely comfortable and at home. Giovanni is just the sweetest. He went above and beyond to make sure my 21st birthday was well spent. If you have the opportunity to book his home, BOOK! BOOK! BOOK! Looking forward to booking him and his home for ALL my New York visits.

  • Reviewer: Sven

    Comments: Giovanni was a great host, uncomplicated and very pleasant. Check in and out was super easy, even as my flight was delayed. The flat is around 8min from the next subway station in Brooklyn. The pictures describe the flat really good, with a complete kitchen and a nice bedroom. I would stay again there. Thanks Giovanni

  • Reviewer: Nicola

    Comments: Giovanni is the PERFECT host. He is super polite and friendly. In all our air bnb stays he has really been the best. He made us feel so welcome and always stayed in excellent communication. The apartment is beautiful, clean and cozy. If you love to cook the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. The location is perfect and the area is very safe. Would definitely recommend. Looking forward to staying here again. Thank you Giovanni.

  • Reviewer: Megan

    Comments: It was spacious and secluded in a nice neighborhood but close to transportation making all the highlights of NYC easily accessible!

  • Reviewer: Janet

    Comments: Nice location. Close to subway, places to eat. Just need to be cleaned better. Need better linens and pillows. More chairs to sit instead of on the bed because it was only 1 little chair in the bedroom. Have all projects done before guest arrive. Plywood was just put up but was not finished. Need an outside light for when you arrive at night.

  • Reviewer: Isabelle

    Comments: Giovanni is very friendly, and ready to make us happy ! And we were ! À very good place, closed to metro, quiet, and nice.....

  • Reviewer: Lia

    Comments: Geo was a great host very attentive Any questions we had, he was quick to answer. The floor fit all seven of us no problems, really roomy. We felt at home. He’s doing great on the remodeling place looks amazing. There was enough chairs for everyone to sit when just hanging out. We will defiantly stay next time we visit the east. Next to subway and plenty of deli’s and restaurants to eat at If in a hurry.

  • Reviewer: Claire

    Comments: Great value, perfect for what I needed

  • Reviewer: Angelica

    Comments: I absolutely loved my stay. The space was so comfortable, and open, I felt right at home. I also appreciated that there was an N64 with Mario-kart:)

  • Reviewer: Jeremie

    Comments: Great host, easy communication and apt. just as listed! Great location within walking distance of the subway. The whole apartment for the price of a room in NYC!

  • Reviewer: Myasia

    Comments: I want to keep this short but there are soooo many great things I can say about Giovanni. He was very welcoming upon check- in and Luna stole my entire heart. The apartment was clean, cozy, and Giovanni provided everything to make our stay seamless. His personality and energy is amazing. We will be staying again in the near future.

  • Reviewer: Nikolas

    Comments: Clean place, Giovanni was friendly and helpful

  • Reviewer: Alyssa

    Comments: Our stay here was great! Felt right at home. Check in is after 6 but Giovanni was very flexible and allowed us to check in after 4. We met Luna upon our arrival who is a gentle giant. Very spacious place. It was just two of us but can easily accommodate 6 people. The kitchen is beautiful, you’re able to cook if needed. I’m always cold and there was an electric heater and lots of comfy blankets to keep me warm. Will definitely stay again.

  • Reviewer: Allison

    Comments: A+!

  • Reviewer: Tevin

    Comments: House was great! Perfect space for young couples looking to have a good place to stay while in the city. Very clean, smells good, and well put together. Would definitely stay again

  • Reviewer: Aleisha

    Comments: Giovanni is a great host. He walked me through the house and let me know everything that I would need. The place is really spacious and clean. I had a wonderful time.

  • Reviewer: Lee

    Comments: Very spacious and private. Plenty of amenities and supplies. Definitely worth the price!

  • Reviewer: Peggy

    Comments: The place is just as described. I loved that it was a garden place with no stairs to maneuver. Very cute place. Easy to park. Great coffee just around the corner!

  • Reviewer: David

    Comments: There's no door between bedroom/entrance and living room/kitchen, but a paper partition is provided that could be used to separate them. Additionally the bedroom is separated from a shared stairway/entrance only by glass French doors. Some things were not clear like where to find towels, or that we'd need to bring our own bathroom basics like shampoo and body wash. Gio was prompt to answer when I reached out though. Another point of concern was when Gio's father entered the apartment rather late at night and introduced himself. It made my travel companions a bit uneasy, but Gio assured me he's speak with him. Location of the place was excellent and the washer/dryer was very handy.

  • Reviewer: Tamara

    Comments: Giovanni was one of the best Airbnb hosts I've ever had! He met us onsite to drop off our things before heading into the city, and while we were settling in he gave us fantastic restaurant suggestions, showed us around, pointed out the kitchen and bathroom amenities, and made sure we had everything we needed. We missed out on meeting his precious darlin' Luna puppy, but we did have fun snapping some pics in his Instagram frame before heading out for the day. :) My fiance and I were super comfy in the main bedroom and my daughter slept like an angel on the fold out couch; all three of us enjoyed our morning snuggles playing Nintendo 64 and lingering over breakfast at home- the kitchen has been recently remodeled and is such fun to cook in, we hardly ate out at all! We loved our stay so much we extended an extra night. You will not be disappointed in Giovanni's place or his exceptional hospitality!

  • Reviewer: Donovan

    Comments: Giovanni was a very great host. Accommodated me well and was easy to reach when and if I needed him. As a chef I was so pleased with the kitchen. The kitchen was beautiful, spacious and clean. I'd give this place a 5 out of 5 stars. The only thing I can find a problem with is the fact that there was a Nintendo 64 Gaming system and Double O Seven(007) Golden Eye wasn't one of the games I'm just kidding. It was a fabulous place and im said he's so overbooked because I only want to rent this space the next time in brooklyn!!!!

  • Reviewer: Suifen

    Comments: An old charm in the Briwnstone area. the area is diverse and full of fun. Will stay again when visiting Brooklyn.

  • Reviewer: Lisa

    Comments: Ok

  • Reviewer: Sandy

    Comments: Large spacious space. Great place for the value. Close to public transportation and was easy to get into the city.

  • Reviewer: Agatha

    Comments: All amenities available and great place to stay. Giovanni was super helpful before and during our stay. We had four people on two beds and did not feel cramped. Big kitchen and everything we needed for our short stay. Thank you!

  • Reviewer: Mary Janezely De Farias

    Comments: Excellent. Thank you very much

  • Reviewer: Abraham

    Comments: Big place, near the subway and places to eat. We enjoyed our stay.

  • Reviewer: Stephen

    Comments: Wonderful! Great pizza and drinks on the corner! Giovanni is so nice! We are very grateful!

  • Reviewer: Maisha

    Comments: Cute, little spot in Brooklyn. The area is very quiet and we really felt like we were at home at Giovanni’s place.

  • Reviewer: Hayley

    Comments: Giovanni was very welcoming and easy to talk to. He greeted us at the door when we arrived and showed us everything we needed to know about his home (even the shower, which is always tricky at someone else's house!). We loved his big open kitchen and cooked breakfast and lunch to save some money during our trip. It was also great to have a washer and dryer handy, which is probably hard to come by in Brooklyn. We loved that we didn't have to use any stairs or elevators, and that we could easily park our car on the street right in front of the house. We had a lovely time in Brooklyn and will keep Giovanni in mind if we visit again! I highly recommend him!

  • Reviewer: Chandrama

    Comments: Giovanni is really nice and responsive (I needed unscented laundry detergent and another reading light by the bed). Liked the neighborhood a lot. It's a big place for NY. Could use more furniture (table/chairs), but you can eat at the counter on sit on the couch. Great place if you plan to cook.

  • Reviewer: Justin

    Comments: Excellent place to stay while in NY!

  • Reviewer: Cathy

    Comments: This was such a cool apartment in a friendly neighborhood. We had a great experience. Everything you need, except food. It does not have A/C and we had an extremely humid weekend. Giovanni was quick to get us a second fan when we asked, which helped a lot. Just wish there were more restaurants within walking distance. Was not able to find a good cup of coffee, so, we made our own. No biggie. We had a wonderful stay. Everything went smoothly and Gio always answered quickly.

  • Reviewer: Chris

    Comments: Nice place at a great price! Giovanni was always responsive, and after I accidentally locked myself outside with my luggage inside while leaving, he was very quick to send someone over to open the door for me despite being at work. Great value, recommended!

  • Reviewer: Tina

    Comments: We stayed a week in early June. Loved the place! My only regret is I never cooked in the kitchen! The subway is 6 blocks away, buses run from just around the corner, but schedules can be limiting. We caught a ride home from Flatbush on the bus a couple of times and just had to walk 1.5 blocks. Coney island and Manhattan are each a longer commute. My daughter near Prospect Park was 30 minutes or so. Highly recommend an unlimited use metro pass. We noticed the use of bikes & bike rental in the neighborhood seemed much higher than in daughter's. Coffee shops, bodegas and restaurants abound. The neighborhood is clean and lively. The grocery store by the Kinsgston Throop station was great. Giovanni let us drop off luggage and check in early, gave us lots of recommendations and asked us to contact him for anything, and Briana from downstairs was very kind and offered help if we needed anything. Turns out we didn't- it was a magic apartment! Anything we wanted we immediately found - including the extremely appreciated cream for my coffee that was in the fridge our first morning!!

  • Reviewer: Agustin

  • Reviewer: Mike

    Comments: Giovanni was helpful and quick to respond to communication. It was very very hot and he set up an air conditioner for us. A good host, a nice place in Bed Stuy

  • Reviewer: Ruben

    Comments: Good spot! There’s a good pizza place nearby and I really like the deli around the corner. The whole floor for a great price.

  • Reviewer: Steve

    Comments: Worth every penny if you plan on staying in NY for a vacation I highly recommend booing your stay here .

  • Reviewer: Antonio

    Comments: Giovanni's spot is THE SPOT !!!! My wife and I truly enjoyed the space and being able to walk around the neighborhood to the trian and local shops. Giovanni's response time was amazing always there to answer questions and even gave us a few trip ideas for our stay. Great place and a great host.

  • Reviewer: Shawn

    Comments: Loved the place and location. Very thoughtful about amenities and the host checked in with us to make sure we were fine. Would definitely stay there again. Walking distance from convenient stores and food. Very close to subway entrance and was able to get around with no issues.

  • Reviewer: Will

    Comments: This place is perfect. Great location for checking out the area. Giovanni is a fantastic host. I always read reviews for hosts and can attest that this one has excellent reviews for a reason. You won't be disappointed.

    Comments: Excellent location and walking distance to the subway. Plenty of towels and pillows and liquid soap. Good enough kitchen if you want to stay in and make a quick easy meal. Giovanni was very kind and quickly responded to all my questions and concerns. Beautiful brownstone neighborhood and safe. For how nice this place is and the location its a great value. The bed slept like a dream!

  • Reviewer: Diana

    Comments: Cute place. Convenient location for the work I was in Brooklyn for... Giovanni was super helpful and responsive to questions.

  • Reviewer: Sam

    Comments: Air conditioning is really poorly sized for the place. Clutter in common areas, bad smell in corridor, looks really rundown outside. Neighborhood is considered violent. Just (Hidden by Airbnb) it. Host very aggressive and offensive, lots of sarcasm if you don't like anything. Very childish behavior. I paid for 3 nights and left after the first one, loosing the money.

  • Reviewer: Lex

    Comments: Giovanni’s place was awesome!! Totally worth staying at!

  • Reviewer: Pablo

    Comments: Fue una buena experiencia. Ubicación a una distancia razonable del metro. El anfitrión me recibio muy bien, y con muy buena disposición. Limpieza muy optima.

  • Reviewer: Travis

    Comments: I stayed here over Labor Day weekend my girlfriend and dog. Giovanni was very nice and greeted us at the door and showed us around. The place was as described and clean, and the host was quick to respond. Not much to do in the neighborhood but the C line is a few blocks away that goes straight into Manhattan. Thanks Giovanni!

  • Reviewer: Kevin

    Comments: An amazing home with a ton of stuff to do nearby. The host is very accommodating and gives great recommendations for food and other local activities.

  • Reviewer: Anastasia

    Comments: My family and I went to Brooklyn for a long weekend trip, we chose to stay in Bed Stuy due to the proximity to the local artist we were working with. We did not know a whole lot about the neighborhood and glad we stumbled upon a less touristy, beautiful and full of character part of Brooklyn. We traveled with a 14-month toddler and that means logistics. Giovanni went above and beyond helping me to arrange a comfortable space for the little one, I shipped the pack-and-play and baby food, Giovanni set-it up for us to ensure it was ready upon arrival. He also made sure we had tons of cozy blankets, there was no shortage of them. :) Space itself is very accommodating for a group or a family of 4-5 people. New York spaces can be quiet tight, contrary to that, Giovanni's ground-level space in a brownstone building is quite spacious, has a marble counter kitchen with basic kitchen tools you may need during your stay. Although it rained most days when we were in Brooklyn, we managed to step out and explore the neighborhood and found a couple of awesome dining spots, including LunAtico and Saraghina. Great place if you wish to branch out and explore the real Brooklyn!

  • Reviewer: Chevy

    Comments: Giovanni is a great guy, really accommodating and let me check in early. The space is great and easy to get around from. Well worth a stay.

  • Reviewer: Danielle

    Comments: If you are going to NY, stay with Giovanni! He gave great local tips and his place is both beautiful and reasonably priced. It is about a 5 minute walk to the C train entrances, uptown C train will take you up through Times Square and Downtown can take you right over to Brooklyn Park. We only spent about $15 total on the metro pass for 3 days, no need to Uber! Giovanni recommended Ragazzis to eat which is literally next door and amazing, along with Brooklyn Park which ended up being the highlight of the trip. Would absolutely stay with him again.

  • Reviewer: Alex

    Comments: A spacious apartment at a great value for staying in New York.

  • Reviewer: Marleny

    Comments: This is probably one of the best AirBnB I have stayed at! It had everything you can think of: comfy bed, tv, WiFi, full kitchen, washer & dryer, shampoo, condition, etc.! The location was nice & a short walk away from the subway. There were great little spots to eat just a few blocks away which was great because we decided to stay mainly in Brooklyn instead of Manhattan. Giovanni was a pleasure to meet & had great local tips for us to do. He was very communicative during our stay. Could t have asked for anything more. Definitely would recommend to anyone!

  • Reviewer: Josie

    Comments: Giovanni's place was amazing! It was a huge space and very very clean!, an Airbnb rarity in New York! Communication with the host was very fast and easy. There was everything that you can need at the place when you're away from home. It was even hard to go out because all we wanted to do was to stay in. Thanks for a great stay and we look forward to booking with you again in the future!

  • Reviewer: Bonni

    Comments: You will get in right away and the space will be ready for you-just realize they are still working on a few things. You get a good neighborhood, lots of space and a great cafe—Kafe Louverture—opens at 8 AM. Brooklyn is great.

  • Reviewer: Phillip

    Comments: Very spacious with access to a laundry room. Interesting neighborhood and within walking distance of the C line into Manhattan.

  • Reviewer: Arielle

    Comments: Gio was a great host. Because we were venturing around the city till late we were unable to meet him upon check-in. He gave easy to understand directions on how to access the space and it felt cozy when we entered. He is very friendly and even came down to say hello when he heard us moving around in the afternoon. I felt very comfortable in his space and would definitely recommend staying there. The location was wonderful and was very close to the subway to access other parts of NY. Thanks again for an amazing visit!

  • Reviewer: Amber

    Comments: Giovanni's place is a gem. Especially if you have a pup! The place is beautifully decorated and smells WONDERFUL. Fast wifi is available and the area offers so many food options within walking distance. Giovanni is an incredibly friendly and accommodating host who made my family and I's Thanksgivig together easy and seamless. We will definitely be staying here again!

    Comments: We have used air BnB many of times but Giovanni surpassed our expectations and honestly treated us to the best experience we’ve had through the company. He was able to accommodate us getting in 3 hours before check in because we were so exhausted even having people leave a few hours before. Mind you, it still looked outstanding and had a comfortable ambience about the place. We are hoping to be able to stay here every time we come to NY from now on and i would recommend 11/10 anyone to stay here for their trips to the big apple. Feeling very blessed to have had this experience and appreciative to have had such wonderful hospitality by such a warm host! STAY HERE IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE!

    Comments: Giovanni is a great host, really tentative and responsive, definitely made my stay homey and comfy. The flat is an easy commute to the C train, which takes you directly into Manhattan, and there’re some really nice restaurants nearby. The flat itself is clean and cozy, highly recommend!

    Comments: I almost thought about moving in. Gio’s place is awesome. The room offers total privacy and access to the backyard. The decor is a inviting, warm and festive. The room is thoughtful and clean. The location is convenient, plenty of bars and restaurants in the area to explore. But I can’t rave enough about the suite. It’s just gorgeous. Open and inviting. Great flow and great vibes. The bedroom near the entrance is really clever. You don’t need to travel far to get food deliveries. We really enjoyed our stay. Hopefully we are lucky enough to find such a gem again when staying in Brooklyn.

The space and decor was beautiful and fit the Christmas season that we were there for. Definitely helped our stay in New York be that much better!

    Comments: Expect to be amazed. Giovanni’s place literally feels like home. It’s accessible and beautiful but his hospitality is over the top. He thinks of EVERYTHING! There’s even a yoga mat and a foam roller. The neighborhood is great and we will definitely stay there again when we return to NYC!

    Comments: Giovanni was so patient as I foolishly locked myself out at 130 am. House is super clean, comfortable and...wait for it... washer dryer! Anyone would be lucky to call this place home while visiting NY.

    Comments: Such a delight! This is a perfect example of what you see is what you get and then some. I will be visiting again very soon. LOVEDDDD IT !

    Comments: Giovanni’s place is even better than advertised. He made us feel like old friends returning, even though he’d only just met us, from the moment we arrived. The space itself is so conveniently located and absolutely beautiful: stylishly decorated, completely modern, and immaculately clean. But it was the little touches that did it for me. He thought of *everything*, from an abundance of blankets, to extras of everything, from soap and shampoo to coffee and fresh flowers to welcome us. And Giovanni himself is a delight. He offered us the warmest of welcomes and checked in with us frequently not only to make sure we had everything we needed, but to make sure we were having a great time during the entirety of our stay. The price is unbeatable for the value of this place. Outstanding hospitality. 10/10 would stay again!
