Wonderful views from the 3rd floor windows. Very comfortable space and classic antiques mixed with modern seating made for a wonderful experience. Its best to get a cell phone that works in Italy; we didnt and our train was late getting to Florence. Had to borrow a phone from a friendly Florencian on a Sunday, so we could call Carlos. (ON Sunday almost everything is closed and Monday alot of museums are closed, FYI) But we did connect. Apartment was great. And a nice complimentary bottle of wine for a welcome! Carlos gave us many tips for restaurants and answered any questions we had. The kitchen is well appointed and we did have a meal in, one evening. In the end, Carlos helped call a taxi so we could get to the train station and on to the next part of our trip. Great host!
