Uma and Tina's apartment is absolutely perfect for a trip to Florence. It is located in the beautiful area surrounding Santo Spirito which is outside the very busy centre but still within a 10 minute walk. I didn't meet Uma but she was so helpful in the lead up to my trip, sending detailed directions and being very flexible with my late check-in time despite being very busy herself. Tina checked me in and communicate with me during my stay. She was so kind and caring, really made me feel looked-after. She even left me fresh pastries one morning which was such a nice touch. The apartment is perfect--small but comfortable with a quirky layout and decor. The heating was on in the morning which was nice as in early April it was still a little cold outside. Overall a perfect stay with the very best of hosts. Thank you Uma and Tina!
