Elena was immediately available to give us information and help and did all she could to make sure our stay in Florence was a pleasant one. The flat was spacious and spotless. We were also able to park our car in the courtyard. It took about 20 minutes to walk into the centre of town and there are several regular buses going to Piazza San Marco and The Academia which is a 10 minute walk from the apartment. We enjoyed the local café bar and an excellent restaurant ( Perseus) obviously appreciated by the Italian locals & where the menu wasn’t translated into English! We warmly recommend Elena’s flat.
