We enjoyed our stay in Stefano's apartment and can recommend this to others. Stefano was very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Florence was a lovely city with a great buzz mixed with hundreds of years of history.

We stayed in Stefano's apartment for three nights. The seven of us (three adults and four children) were very comfortable. The apartment was very spacious with amazingly high ceilings. We hardly used the large lounge or dining area and found ourselves congregating in the large hall most often.

The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and in very tidy condition. The kitchen was older but I believe this may be remodelled shortly.

There is a bus stop across the street which connects with the train station. The apartment is approximately a 20 minute walk to the Duomo and there a number of bakeries and coffee shops along the way. We caught the #6 bus to and from the train station to the apartment but the bus was crowded. Be aware, we could not buy tickets on the bus and had to buy them at the train station or tobacco shop.

The guide given to us by Stefano on arrival was very helpful and the bottle of Prosecco was much appreciated. The WiFi worked well but you may need to connect to more than one of the many WiFi networks available as the apartment is so large.

There are supermarkets and restaurants within a 10 minute walk.
