Wonderful apartment with all the amenities needed for our 5-day stay in Florence. The apartment is in a very touristy section of the city, however it has wonderful soundproofing with the windows closed and never felt too loud. Marusca is very gracious and knows all the best places for eating and drinking in the area, she even made dinner reservations for us at one of the top restaurants (Vini e Vecchi Sapori) which was truly amazing! If needed, Marusca is very responsive via messaging through Air B&B (like when we could not find the silverware drawer to find a wine opener :) ). Marusca is thoughtful to check in via messaging to see how our trip was going, and otherwise never intruded upon our time at the apartment. I definitely recommend this apartment for a stay in this wonderfully charming city.
