Gemma's clean, tastefully restored flat was the perfect place to stay in the Santa Croce neighborhood. The bed has a memory foam top which is heaven to sleep on after walking all day. The AC worked industriously (necessary in August heat in Firenze), the bathroom is modern and sleek and the shower has great pressure. The place was Quiet at night but the neighborhood felt hip and somewhat "off the beaten path" during the day. Her guidebook provided the perfect itinerary. Hope to stay here again during our next visit!
