Our stay at Silvia's apartment was very nice. The apartment is located in a very cool little piazza and coveniently situated - I would recommend eating once at the little deli on the corner next to the Irish pub - it is delicious!!
The apartment is small but has everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Silvia contacted us to see if we were ok and her father, who lives in the apartment block, was on hand for anything we might need. Check out is at 10am and he allowed us to keep our cases in his apartment for the remainder of the day. The only thing I would recommend for a better stay would be to have the shower checked as it was either way too hot or freezing cold!
Overall, we had a fantastic trip in florence and would definitely return to Silvia's lovely apartment :-)
