This is a well appointed apartment with a clean, chic decor. Lots of "coffee table" books relevant to Florence. Air conditioning was perfect for the 36 C August days. Double exterior windows made the apartment quieter than expected. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Bathroom showers are tight, but each (2) has double taps and are well kept. The location was perfect - close to the Duomo (with an imposing view from the balcony), and a 5 - 10 min walk to all of the major museums. It was nice to be able to quickly retreat to the apartment in the heat of the day or for a break from the crowds. Francesco was very responsive to our requests (we used text) and provided dining suggestions and advice. We would stay there again.
