Chiara's Florence apartment was truly the most lovely place I've ever stayed! It is well decorated, and offers all of the comforts of home. There's a charming little patio where you can enjoy a coffee in the morning or nice glass of chianti after a long day of sightseeing (Chiara even had a bottle waiting for us as a welcome gift!). It's very close to the Duomo and other great sites in Florence, and Chiara provided a helpful map on which she pointed out all of the best places to see. We took her advice and had an incredible time. We definitely hope to stay there again someday.
