If you are looking for an authentic Florence apartment, this is it! One of the best airbnb experiences I've had. The apartment was exceptionally clean and charming. The balcony view was beautiful. The location was perfect - within minutes of the main city areas but on a quiet, private street. Rita was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to answer our questions and provide unique advice about navigating the city. The listing description about climbing many stairs is true, but it was worth it. Highly recommend staying here!!
