We enjoyed our time in Florence immensely. We even did a side trip to Pisa with plenty of time in the evening to still roam around Florence’s streets. Alessandra’s place is very spacious for a family of five and is within walking distance to all the main sites, while being far enough to get away from the crows. There are four (steep) flights of stairs to get to the apartment, so those with any mobility limitations might find it difficult getting up and down the stairs. Alessandra and her assistant, Dajana, were very quick to respond via text to our questions and inquiries. Also, Dajana received us and helped us with the luggage as well as showed us around the apartment.
