Just got back from staying at Alberto's apartment for 1 week. It amazed me how accurate the description of the place was - just as described, same breathtaking views from the windows as on the photos, even better. The apartment is so conveniently located in the historic Florence, just 1 minute walk to Arno with a beautiful view on Pone Vecchio in one direction, and a 4 minute walk to Piazza Republica another way, close to everything. Upscale boutiques, restaurants, cafe's all around, yet, it was very quiet in the apartment at night. Both Alberto and Alberto's helper Enrico, who met us at the door when we arrived are very responsive, proactive with offering any assistance and are available. Enrico prepared a helpful map, circling locations of nearby restaurants, cafes and grocery stores, which we were happy to check out, and was available all the time if we needed anything. The apartment is so perfect, clean and well equipped, we hardly needed anything (asked for an extra blanket when arrived and got it right away). Oh, and the bed is very comfortable! The shower/bathroom was quite lovely as well, water pressure is a bit weak, but overall, all great. The apartment is tastefully decorated, perfect for 2 people. I can't wait to be back - next time I'm in Florence, I will definitely stay in Alberto's apartment again! 💜
