Chiara's place is cozy and intimate. It is also very welcoming. The place is very close to Ponte Vecchio and the Piazza Michelangelo (I hope that I didn't spell it incorrectly), which offers the best view of Florence. She answered all of my questions fast and with great suggestions. Better yet, her place has an AC. If you are visiting Florence in the hot summer weather, you will not regret renting her place. She also welcomes her guests with a bottle of Chianti Classico. This tiny little welcoming gesture sets her apart from all the other places I looked at. I will be back to Florence and I will definitely stay at her place without any hesitation. One side note which has nothing to do with Chiara and her apartment: if you arrive in Florence in a hot summer day and with luggage (backpack is better,) take the bus which is fast, with AC and inexpensive €1.20, in 2017. It gets you 1-2 minutes away from her apartment, from Firenze SMN train station. Or you can take a taxi cab. I love walking and chose to walk. Though the walk was magnificent and eye-opening, I nearly melted when I checked in. Anyway, this place is a must-book place!
