Valeria's place far exceeded our expectations- and the photographs already showed it to be a beautiful place to stay! A comfortable-sized, tastefully decorated room and our own private bathroom next door set within a beautiful, grand, old style apartment. Valeria (and her flatmates) gave us plenty of great recommendations for typical Florentine food to try, restaurants and attractions. Each morning a light breakfast was laid out for us (and on Easter Sunday Valeria shared with us an Easter cake her Grandmother made! So sweet!) which we enjoyed on the gorgeous balcony one day. The flat has everything you need for a city stay and was a lovely 10-15 minute walk to the historic quarter of Florence. This also meant it was a lovely and quiet residential area to come back and get a good sleep in between busy days. Highly recommend the accommodation and the wonderful host Valeria.
