The location is wonderful - right in the heart of Florence. Everything you could possibly want to enjoy is within walking distance - museums, shopping, coffee, pastries and fabulous restaurant choices. Most just as you open the door. We were graciously welcomed. The maps provided of information about "local" places you may want to experience, were extremely helpful. We experienced several places we wouldn't even have know about without Marco's recommendation. The apartment is so beautifully decorated it made a relaxing environment to arrive after our adventured filled days. The convenient location also made it easy to drop items off and freshen up at anytime during the day without having to venture far from any action! We loved the experience. Would recommend to family and friends. Would definitely stay again if ever in Florence.
