I and my boyfriend spent 4 days in the florence. We searched for housing near the center, but in a quiet area. And completely were satisfied with this apartment.
We did not see the owner, his father met and accompanied us. Very nice person. He explained and showed everything, as well as helped with the luggage on the day of departure (left while we were waiting for the train). And in case something was forgotten, the apartment had a folder with instructions and tips.
The entrance is clean, comfortable, there is an elevator and a videophone. There is parking, but since we were without a car, they did not use it. It's great that two sets of keys were provided, for some it can be very convenient. The apartment is spacious and quite bright. The windows overlook the roadway and someone may think it's noisy, but for us it did not become a problem. There is everything you need: stove, microwave, large fridge, kettle, washing machine, dishes. The bedroom has a very comfortable bed. From the pleasant - a carpet in the living room (it wasn't on the photo). Wifi is also present, fast, it works stably.
In 200 meters there is a good supermarket. Also, almost in front of the post office and ATM. It was a pity there was no cafe nearby, but we, the truth, did not search.
Comfortable and quiet life. And you can walk to the center with pleasant streets. We recommend staying in this apartment. And thank you very much host for your hospitality.
