My friends and I were able to catch an earlier train to Florence, putting us ahead 2 hours but Cristina was extremely flexible and able to meet us as soon as we arrived. The location was absolutely perfect. It was my first time in Florence, but we seemed to be in the middle of it all! The place was equipped with everything we needed and felt very homey! There's a very good smoothie/juice bar right across the street. Also, Cristina allowed us to keep our bags in the apartment on the day of check out while we killed time before our flight that evening.
