Lysiane’s flat is in the heart of Florence, walking distance to all the must see sites like the Uffizi, Accademia, and the breathtaking Ponte Vecchio over the Arno River. It’s centrally located but away from the touristy area, providing a charming local feel with surrounding shops and cafes filled with Italians. If you take a left out the front door and walk down a short distance, there is an amazing cafe (the first you come to on your left), Caffe e Bistrot. We started every morning with a pastry and cappuccino, watching passing school children walking to school, it was precious. We also took their sandwiches to go for our day tripping explorations, buonissimo! The flat is located within walking distance of both the train and bus stations, allowing us the flexibility to explore surrounding cities and to travel into the Tuscan country side. Lysiane is extremely easy to coordinate with, professional and kind. Her place provided the opportunity of a life time for me and my husband to take the Tuscan trip we have been dreaming about for years.
