Mariangela's place is well kept and you can tell she's put a lot of care into it. It's stylish yet inviting like in the photos, and very spacious! It feels even more airy in person with high ceilings and the large open room. There is air conditioning, an updated bathroom, good size fridge and dishwasher, gas stove, and a combination washer/dryer insuite.
We appreciated the thoughtful little touches such as the hotel style set of toiletries, good quality hair dryer with nozzle, laundy detergent and drying rack, and any cooking utensils you might need (though we always ate out!). There was a gift of delicious biscotti waiting for us on arrival, and even a couple of bedside chocolates :) They have a huge detailed binder with all the apartment info and advice on exploring Florence, too.
Check-in and out was smooth, Mariangela was easy to communicate with and made a point of being proactive - checking in after our first night to make sure we were happy and to see if we needed anything.
The location is great - close to everything and a super short walk from the train station! If you are a light sleeper and go to bed early you may want earplugs as businesses and residential are all intermixed here, however we weren't bothered by it.
We felt the place was a great find and value, loved our stay and would happily stay here again :)
