Federico was very good about meeting us - he arrived by motorbike just after we did - repeated texts during our journey from the airport in Pisa made it much easier for both sides.
As a venue for seeing the sights of Florence, I think it would be difficult to beat. During our time there, the latest Tom Hanks movie was being shot beneath our window - very interesting to see the process, but a bit of a nuisance getting in and out (only minor, and very unlikely to be a problem ever again!)
The apartment is lovely, and right next to a bakery, so eating is easy. The kitchen is fabulous and the bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately, the enclosed private courtyard, despite previous reviews, was still rather dirty. The apartment itself was neat, but quite dusty, which is a real pity given the hefty cash fee for cleaning that one must part with.
