I stayed 2 nights in Alessia’s apartment for a short trip with my girlfriend. The apartment is fantastic and we would definitely return here if we visit again.
Before hand she was very responsive to any messages/questions we had, particularly as we were driving in and out of the city (this is very easy and she has a nice garage, which can fit a small-medium sized car - we had a FIAT Panda and this easily slotted in).
On arrival Alessia was in town and therefore she greeted us, rather than her parents. She was extremely helpful in explaining all of the ins and outs of the apartment and the city, and has a great homemade guide folder, with all the information you’ll need.
We were a bit late in arriving to the apartment, but Alessia is an incredibly nice person and she was very sympathetic of our car hire troubles that caused the delay. (Apologies again Alessia!)
As our trip was short, the location of this apartment was key, and it surpassed expectations. Everything is a short walk away (max 15min walk), whilst not too touristy - plenty of local food/drink spots nearby.
We didn’t use the kitchen, but she had a electric stovetop and all the equipment so you could cook for yourself if you wanted.
Thank you Alessia for making our trip to Florence fantastic. I do not have a bad thing to say about our stay.
