We had a great stay at Silvia’s place in Florence. It’s across the bridge from the main city which made it a bit quieter and better to relax after a long day. Silvia gave us some great tips on things to see in the city as well as recommendations for places to eat. To that end, her flat is located just up the street from a Piazza with several great restaurants, and there are several mini markets near by if you want to purchase food to make on your own. Her place was very well laid out and clean, and she was very responsive to questions during our stay (what few there were). We will definitely stay there again when we return to Florence!
