My friend and I had a great time staying at Alessandra's apartment for 8 nights. We had a friendly welcome from Manuela, who cleans the apartment, as Alessandra was not able to be there, though Alessandra very kindly offered to meet us and give us some tips! The apartment has a lovely bright and clean feel to it and is adequately spacious. The kitchen is well-equipped and the bathroom has a good shower. My friend used the very pleasant bedroom, which he said was very comfortable, and I used the sofa-bed, which was also surprisingly comfortable and large.

The location of the apartment is great, being very close to Santo Spirito, about 15 minutes walk from the Uffizi for example. However, it is in a relatively quiet street, and we heard very little noise from either inside or outside the apartment block; just a little on the Saturday night. It is 52 steps up to the apartment from the front door, but that didn't bother us.

Thank you Alessandra for providing this lovely apartment at such a reasonable cost!
