The pictures of the flat in Florence can not do justice to the beauty of the flat. We turned left out of the beautiful, grandiose door onto the street and it was a 10- 15 minute walk to the Duomo. We were a group of 10 and having the privacy of your own bedroom and washroom was perfect for our needs. A/C worked perfectly for a very warm time of year. We would enjoy time together in the morning then go our separate ways until later in the day. All of the recommendations for dining made by Monica were perfect to eat authentic meals where the locals eat. As a vegetarian , I was also able to find foods that were delicious. Although there was an issue with the refrigerator Monica promptly had a new one delivered. Monica also assisted us with trying to find transportation for 10 people to the train station despite a 2 day taxi strike that was on during the time we were in Florence. Monica , thank you again for being a perfect host. Laurie
