Staying at Laura's apartment in Florence was a fantastic experience! She was very accommodating in regards to our arrival time, and even had a parking space saved for us when we arrived . You have to love free parking and not having to drive through the tiny streets in the city center. The apartment is about a 15 minute walk to all of the big sites. We loved the neighbourhood as it was still in Florence but just a bit away from the major crowds, and was a lovely walk back along the Arno river.
The apartment was spotless and fully equipped, and was even a lovely basket of pastries waiting for us on our arrival. Supermarkets are just around the corner if you want to eat in, and there some great restaurants about a 5-10 min walk away.
I hope to visit Florence again in the near future, and I would definitely stay here again (and again, and again) .
Grazie Mille Laura!!
