Ulisse's lovely apartment was very easy to find, and only a ten minute walk from the train station in central Florence. The ease of finding it is only helped further by the fact that it is right next to the famous, and hard-to-miss, Duomo (a great landmark to help if you get lost). There is also a lift to help you up to the 5th floor, so there's no problem if you are unable to climb lots of steps!

Ulisse met us when we arrived and was very helpful and cheery. We had a nice selection of food and drink in the fridge which was a nice touch, especially after a long trip.

The apartment itself was spotlessly clean and well furnished. Our room had a massive bed and was perhaps the most comfortable bed I've ever used. You could even see the famous Duomo from the window.

Communication was flawless and quick and made our trip very relaxing. Overall it was a great place to stay in Florence and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Our top tip for the city - visit the second floor of the Mercato Centrale at night for a wonderful selection of food and drink and a buzzing atmosphere!
