Riccardo was an excellent host, he was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The apartment was in a great location right in the middle of Florence, only a few minutes walk from the Ponte Vecchio and many other attractions. The living areas were very quiet overlooking an internal courtyard however the bedroom was overlooking the street which made it very noisy, especially as we are not used to city noise - the trade off for being in such a central location. The apartment had everything we needed for a great few days.
