I could not have asked for a better stay in Florence! First off, the location was fantastic because it is well within walking distance of everything there is to do in Florence, but it is in a quiet, residential neighborhood. It is also a 5 minute walk from the Santa Maria Novella train station, which was incredibly convenient. Second, the hospitality of Alda and her family is off the charts. They were very thorough with the check in and offered fantastic advice. Third, the apartment is beautiful, spacious and clean. I felt right at home in this lovely apartment and would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Florence.
