I stayed at Irene and Alain's apartment for 7days. I had a great time! The apartment has everything you need.

Some really big pros:
The hosts:
-Irene and Alain are incredibly nice! It was a real pleasure getting to know them.
- Irene greeted us readily after arriving in Florence.
-Check out was simple and easy to do

Apartment:
-GREAT location. Very safe. Very close to all attractions (literally located around the corner from the Duomo, which you can see from the front of the apartment door.)
-The apartment was very clean and tidy.
-Apartment had plenty of space for 2
-Bed was comfortable. Extra blankets helped when it was cold out.
-Irene and Alain have a pamphlet of some things to see around Florence along with a map- pretty helpful.

Only drawback was the wifi which Irene and Alain are trying hard to fix. It goes in and out, but a simple solution is to turn off the wifi and turn it back on right away- problem solved. A little annoying but hey, I was there to see Florence not to play on the computer.

I very highly recommend staying at one of their apartments. You won't be disappointed.
