Our small family (couple and 3 year old daughter) stayed in Caterina's lovely apartment for four nights. It was a fantastic base to explore Florence from. It is in a lovely quarter of Florence - its on a pedestrian-only street that has a great enoteca, gelati bar and patisseri, and a supermarket is just around the corner. You can walk easily from the apartment around central Florence, and we didn't hear any noise at nighttime. It was very large and we were very comfortable for our stay. Caterina also left lots of local goodies, including pasta and sauce, which was lovely. We would definitely come back - thanks Caterina!
