Where do we begin on this excellent Airbnb? The location is perfect, Alice is readily available for all questions. If you have any problems, she will provide the answer and/or come in person. The Duomo is minutes away and the bells are lovely to hear. There are two grocery stores nearby, one is across the street and the other a few doors down. Walking distance to the heart of Florence is a cinch and makes it easy to come and go.
There is a washing machine which is very helpful if you are a light traveller. Alice also provides detergent for the washing machine. The kitchen is very large, ideal for 4 people. The Accademia is basically around the corner, again, making it easy to come and go.
A note to the U.S. traveller's. The light switches work differently in Europe and when we arrived to the building, we didn't know to turn on the hall lights, it was pitch black after the second door. Make sure you look for the light switch if the hallways are dark so that you find your way to your apartment door. Behind the second door, the building is well secured, you will reach your apartment hallway and Alice will have your apartment labelled with your name. The neighbors live there permanently and are very nice. We worked to be quiet and courteous.
We can't wait to go back, it was excellent.
