It's an okay place to stay. The flat is beautiful but leaves a bit to be desired in regard to communicating with the host. We never saw Agnese. We only saw her father Sergio who barely spoke English and was very hard to communicate with. There were many mosquitoes in the home and they buzzed around us all night long. There were some mosquito repellents there but we did not understand Sergio when he was trying to tell us about them. It's a big deal. Those mosquitoes are really annoying. I asked for more towels and he looked at me as if I were crazy and never brought more towels. The shower is awkward and the drain is in the middle of the floor in the bathroom. The shower is not enclosed and the water gets everywhere and the floor is very, very slippery. It is hard to dry your feet and then come out of the bathroom and still have dry feet which is why I had asked for more towels. The staircase in the apartment is very narrow and steep and it is very difficult to get your bags up to the bedroom. We ended up leaving our bags down on the bottom floor and just using that area as our changing room. On the upside, Sergio did help us bring our bags up the many stairs to the flat. He did leave us a nice bottle of wine. He did call us a taxi and help us with our bags when we were leaving. There are good restaurants in the area. Trattoria Tito is just a few doors down and it is the most famous restaurant in Florence. It is very fun place to visit. You need to make a reservation in advance. Also the restaurant right next door to them called Gargantua is a nice place to eat with great food and a very nice man who owns it. There is also a nice cafe called Cafe Lietta up around the corner. And there is a taxi stand right out front of cafe Lietta. It is a good place to get a quick bite for breakfast and it is a great place to have an evening cocktail or aperitif. Lastly it would have been nice to know that there is a laundry just one door down from the flat. We did not know that and I think they should put that in their description of their home. Overall it is a very cute place to stay. It is quiet and away from all of the hustle and bustle of the crazy City of Florence.
