This apartment, although compact, has everything one needs for a short stay in Florence. The main attraction is that it is dead center in the city--so very easy to get to any major monument and return for a nap if you are so inclined. It has the most gorgeous, close-up view of the dome of the cathedral from the bedroom and the living room/dining room that I have ever seen! That alone makes the place worth renting. There are mini-supermarkets nearby so you can cook in your own place if you so choose. Cinzia is delightful and communicated immediately as soon as anything went wrong. She brought us anything we asked for--extra hangers, kitchen towels, etc. The one complaint I have, and this is due to the corporation that owns this place rather than to Cinzia herself, is that the place was not deep cleaned when I arrived. While the kitchen and bathroom were basically clean, the drain of the dishwasher was filled with old food--a bit gross. There was dust in the drawers and a receipt from December confirmed that no one had opened them in a while. As I said, this is due to the corporation that owns the place, which doesn't do deep cleanings as often as they should. But the location is a dream. The view makes up for everything. And Cinzia should get an award for her care and concern.
