Ciro's apartment is a very nice apartment in a GREAT location! Next to the Duomo, a few blocks from the Accademie Gallery (where the statue of David is located), a leisurely 10 minute walk from the train station, basically it's only minutes from everything in Florence. Ciro is a very nice and generous host! He met us at the train station and then gave us a ride to the apartment. He had fruit, cookies, a bottle of wine, beer, orange juice and other welcome items in the apartment. He was very responsive to our questions and requests. The main bedroom was very comfortable with a great bed. The second bed wasn't quite as comfortable but my daughter slept there so I can't complain! My only concern why I rated the apartment at 4 stars rather than 5 stars was the amount of noise at night. Because it is close to so many popular attractions there are a lot of people out at night making a lot of noise. Ciro did warn us about the noise and he did supply ear plugs which really helped. I guess if I was younger in my 20's and 30's I would be out making as much noise as the next person and it wouldn't bother me as much. If I am going to visit Florence again I would contact Ciro again before I made any other reservations.
