Claudia's home is located very conveniently in Florence. Not a very far walk from the Duomo, or other popular main attractions. Unfortunately, I was not able to meet Claudia herself, but her sister Arianna was a pleasure to meet, and incredibly kind. She was eager to recommend us places to eat, and even helped us carry our luggages up the stairs. My boyfriend and I were only in Florence for 3 days - this was a great place for a short stay for 2.
