We spent 9 days in Florence at Marias apartment. It was in a great location but also very quiet. It was cozy and warm and wonderful to have a nice place to rest and refresh after a day of sightseeing. The apartment is central and an easy walk to all the sights of the city. It is also close to the train station where we were able to take day trips to Cinque Terre, Pisa and Venice. The bed was very comfortable and we appreciated the nice linens and towels. When we arrived we were met by Cristina who showed us around and got us settled in. We were welcomed with a bowl of fruit (the oranges are amazing),some snacks and a bottle of champagne. Cristina was also on hand to check us out and even arranged us a taxi to the station. A great place to stay in Florence!!
