What a find! This apartment is spacious (bigger than we needed as a family of four), clean, warm, bright and has a fully functional kitchen. The garage was a really great deal as it gave us peace of mind (we had no need for the car once we arrived). Most Florence sights are 15-20 minutes away on foot. Tina and her daughter made us feel welcome and had lots of great suggestions for things to see and do. Tina even had lots of suggestions for kid-friendly activities. Her English is excellent - no language barrier at all. Her daughter got along well with our kids and they even had some fun playing together.

A few commenters mention the traffic noise as a negative. Yes, you can hear the traffic noise. But if you have spent any time in any major American city, the amount of noise is comparable. It didn't impact our stay or bother us in the slightest.

Great space, great location, fantastic hosts. We all enjoyed our time in Florence.
