Ciro and his family were lovely hosts. The apartment is much larger and more beautiful than the pictures reflect. I couldn't ask for anything more. They allowed us to check in early and were very hospital. He went through step by step instructions regarding the apartment, which was very thoughtful. He also gave us recommendations to local restaurants. The apartment's location is absolutely perfect as well. It was less a 10 minute walk to all the museums. The only downside is the noise at night, which Ciro explained and gave us earplugs that helped. We slept well. I would absolutely go back to Florence and stay at Ciro's apartment.
