Chiara's place was the best apartment we have ever rented. Stunning, quiet, comfortable. Chiara went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. She printed our boarding passes, called our taxi for us, and gave us countless recommendations; I had lots of questions! The location is ideal, five minutes walk to Santa Croce church, ten minutes to Uffizi, Duomo, Accademia, etc. The neighborhood is residential with a great market five minutes away. There are two grocery stores five minutes away. We went to several good restaurants in the neighborhood, and Cibreo Caffe is a stand out if you want a really special experience. Oh, and bonus points for the hair dryer! Not the usual one found in rentals that takes a half hour to dry your hair, it's a professional quality dryer.
