The apartment was fantastic. Very well appointed and extremely well maintained. The patio is fantastic and we used it all the time! My four year old son especially liked it enjoyed the freedom of an outdoor private space to play. The air conditioning is outstanding and made the apartment very comfortable even on the hottest days. Sonia is wonderful and made our stay wonderful! She thinks of everything and cares deeply that you have a wonderful stay in Florence. The neighborhood is quiet but quite close to the center. Good grocery shopping nearby as well as restaurants in the Oltrano and an excellent gelateria on Piazza Tassimo just a minute's walk from the apartment. This was the best place we stayed during our vacation by far!
