The apartment was delightful - exactly as described, and Chiara greeted me warmly and with all the information I needed to make my stay in Florence perfect. The neighborhood is great - an excellent restaurant just one street await, an open air market at the other end of the street, and a big food store just a short walk away.

The apartment is beautifully appointed and Chiara has gone out of her way to add special little touches that make all the difference. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a full size refrigerator. Internet access is dependable and high speed.

And most important, the neighborhood is close to all the magnificent sites you will want to visit in Florence. I can't recommend it more highly!!
