We can't say enough about our lovely stay in Florence. Elena was so friendly & went above and beyond to help with restaurant recommendations, taxis & even restaurant bookings. The binder she provides has all necessary information & neighborhood tips. The apartment had everything we could need, including a washing machine, a Nespresso maker, and extra towels and blankets. It felt like a home.
The location was central and convenient to all the major museums & the river. You are truly in the heart of Florence right out the door.
As Elena mentions in the listing, there is street noise from pedestrians and cars (one night it went until 4am). The front bedroom closest to the street gets the brunt of it. The back bedrooms are very quiet. Despite that we would return anytime and we truly appreciated Elena's hospitality.
