We spent four weeks at Ciro's apartment, and now there is nowhere else in Florence we would rather stay. We have to echo the statements of his other guests--we loved it! Florence is the cradle of the Renaissance, and to open the shutters every morning and see Brunelleschi's dome and Giotto's bell tower never failed to make my heart skip a beat--there was the Renaussance, right outside my window!
Ciro and Lisa are kind, lovely people. They stocked the apartment with wine and goodies, and were attentive to our needs. The apartment was spacious, and clean, and the bed so comfortable! We enjoyed his father's artwork and loved watching the activity in the piazza below. I'm sure I spent hours at the window! With supermarkets and markets nearby, we could eat well in the apartment as well as eating out with good restaurants nearby. The central location was perfect. Yes, there is street noise at times, but Ciro provides ear plugs for those who need them.
Grazie mille, Ciro, Lisa, and Luna! We hope to stay at your wonderful apartment again one day.
