Ilaria’s home is the ideal place for larger or multiple families to stay. We were an extended family of 8, plenty of space for us all in a very central location yet not noisy at night.
The garden is beautiful and added bonus. The two bathrooms worked well although the shower downstairs is on the small side but we had no problems, it was accessible enough for my mum.
There is a bus stop nearby which we utilised most days to get about, and the lotto shop where you buy your bus tickets also nearby. This was ideal for us as my mum walks with a stick and in the heat having the bus stop so close to the house was ideal.
St Marco’s Square was a 5minute walk from the house where we were lucky to have live music most nights, and 2 lovely restaurants where we ate or stopped off on way home after a long day sight seeing for a glass of wine/cold beer (Academia being the better of the 2)
Ilaria was only a message away, and checked in with me to see how we were doing and kindly booked our taxi’s to the airport.
I would definitely recommend staying here, the perfect base. ilaria was a fabulous host and Florence was such a beautiful city.
