Martina's flat was just a quick taxi trip from the Santa Maria Novella train station. Her mom Paola was at the door to greet me as I arrived. She took the time to show me every feature within the flat. By far the easiest check-in of my entire trip.
Overall the flat was great. I would recommend the Dante flat. It's location is perfect. Right on the south side of the river. The main attractions are short walks away and there are plenty of places to shop, eat, drink, etc on the south side as well. The AC was perfect and a welcomed treat after sightseeing all day. The fridge kept food cold. The washer/dryer made doing laundry effortless and if you've ever stayed in Europe that's saying a lot. For me, and me personally, the shower was a bit small but I'm bigger than the average guy. The only real negative that I had, and again this is me personally, was that the windows looked out over a small inner parking area and people are up early and are very loud. It sounded like there was also some construction going on but I'm sure that's just temporary. If you're someone who likes to stay up late and sleep in the next morning you'll find it difficult to do so.
Check out was simple. Paola met me at the door and was nice enough to call me a taxi back to the train station. I can't say enough good things about Paola she was very helpful and very quick to respond.
I would stay here again.
