Fabulous location only a short bus ride to the city centre & Santa Maria Novella train station. The apartment was clean, comfortable, tastefully appointed and felt like 'home'. Everything we needed was located at the end of the street, a small market to purchase fresh fruit & vegetables, a deli, a bakery & Cafe le Cure for a drink, snack & bus tickets. Our host Cristina was wonderful. She took the time to consider our interests & recommended restaurants, shopping locations & a concert to attend. Cristina is the kindest, warmest host. We feel we have a new friend. We highly recommend Cristina's lovely apartment & would definitely stay there again on a return visit.
