Mauro and Elena’s apartment was our favorite among those we stayed at during our three weeks in Italy. It is light and airy and has everything you need to be comfortable. Speaking as a reader, I will mention that they had great lighting options - which is not true in many rentals. They also had a couch that was a super nice place to sit on - again, not so true of the other rentals we stayed in. The weather didn’t permit us to use the outdoor patio but we could visualize that this would be a real plus in a warmer season. We found a wine bar, a Michelin star restaurant, a gelateria, and a sandwich stop all within a few hundred meters. And, even though across the river, we found it easy to reach all the major sights of Florence on foot. We want to thank Elena and Mauro for the thought they have put into making this such a perfect home for travelers.
