Laura’s apartment was as fantastic as she was! She was responsive, both before and during our trip, and made us feel welcome from the onset (she even gave us a gift of an Italian cake!). The apartment is perfectly located with easy access to the leather market, main train station and local restaurants, yet was quiet inside. Everything promised was there, and more. The AC in the main living space and a separate one in the bedroom where heavenly, especially in July. As a nice little bonus, Laura told us about a wine shop just around the corner (literally) that fills your own bottle with delicious and inexpensive local and regional wines AND Laura was kind enough to allow us to borrow hers! When we come to Florence again, I can’t think of another place I’ll look to stay.
