We enjoyed staying at this lovely apartment. The view of the Arno from the terrace is extraordinary and the location to major sights, museums, restaurants was perfect for our first visit to Firenze. Communication with Marusca was easy and spent much time with us upon arrival, offering suggestions for best restaurants, bakery, gelataria, sandwich shop, grocery store. Our visit would have been less without it. Take the walk up the hill to Piazza Michelangelo and the glorious basilica/cemetery of San Miniato al Monte for a spectacular view of the city. Aside from the usual places, recommend seeing Jenny Saville at Novocento and the restored Uccello frescoes at Santa Maria Novella.
