Giulio was waiting for us outside the apartment when we arrived. The place was just as advertised although it looks a bit different regarding some of the furniture placement. My husband and I were travelling with our 17 and & 18 year old and we gave them the bedroom with the bigger bed and the bedrooms were very spacious with lots of room to just leave your suitcase open on the floor without it being in the way. The beds and pillows were okay compared to some we experienced on our trip but were only about a 6 out of 10 on comfort level.

The neighborhood was great! Within walking distance of everything and on a very major road so all you had to do was go out the door, turn right and start walking and within a couple of blocks you were passing the Boboli Garden and a few more blocks and you were walking over the Ponte Vecchio!

We had been travelling for two weeks at this point and were very happy to have a fully equipped kitchen to make breakfasts and dinners. It was the first place we had stayed where he actually had food provisions for us. There was coffee in the cupboard along with the coffee maker. Juice in the fridge and lots of water along with some snacks. It was great not to have to buy the staples. There was a grocery store just a half a block down the street where we would pick up fresh food every morning for that days meals. The butcher there got to know us by the second day and started recommending things to us which was great. In the other directions just a couple of doors next to us was a place for fresh breads and pizzas so we never had to go more than a few paces to have lovely food! All of the food is so fresh and tasty there that it was a real treat to cook!

We had a small issue with the internet which I think had more to do with us having a problem connecting than with the internet service but Guillio was there within an hour after we called him to check on it (we were out sight seeing at the time) but he sent us a text to tell us that it was working fine. He was there to meet us on time as we were leaving and called a cab for us to take us to our car rental place.

All in all a great experience here. We would go back without hesitation!
