The apartment was exactly as described and Niccolo and hi mother were terrific people. The apartment had everything we needed even home made spaghetti sauce. The bed and bathroom were clean and well kept and the location was great for getting a bus into Florence. Shops are very close and we cooked most of our meals. The decks are terrific with fabulous views of Florence and we enjoyed sitting out at night with a bottle of wine and watching the sun go down. A big bonus was the private parking. The weather was very hot but the living room and the bedroom are air conditioned.
