Teresa's apartment was lovely and we couldn't ask for a better location in Florence! We walked about 5 minutes from the train station to reach her place and then another 5 minutes for the Duomo. In fact, we walked everywhere - about 25 minutes to the other side of the river. Teresa was friendly and arranged for us to drop our bags while the apartment was cleaned. She explained everything to us and was very friendly. When we arrived home, she had left a generous assortment of food and drink (and Easter treats for our two teenagers). There is a supermarket next to the apartment, restaurants all around, and the central market is right around the corner. Wish we could have stayed longer! One note - if you have balance issues, beware that the entry hall slopes a bit so steady yourself.
