Patrizia's lovely apartment is a peaceful oasis in the din of Firenze. Only a few blocks fom the Duomo, we saw almost no tourists on our street during our stay. At night it is absolutely silent. More importantly, Patrizia is perhaps the msst thoughtful and helpful hostess we have met during our Airbnb stays. The apartment had the intructions for all of those little things that non-Europeans find confusing (washing machines, garbage, etc). All of the essentials were in the aapartment, including a coffee, bottle of wine, and a bowl of fruit. It is a delightful place, and I highly recommend it.
