This was just an overall great experience. From the moment we booked the apartment, Antonio was quick to communicate and easy to work with our changing schedules. He and his wife explained everything we would need and left a detailed instruction booklet, just in case.
The apartment itself is in a great location right outside the fray of tourists and in a great neighborhood for experiencing Florence. It's super close to bars, restaurants, super markets, etc. Every time we walked home, we talked about how much we loved the location. Even though it's on a "big" (it's all relative) street, the apartment is set back from the street so it's super quiet. The views are great (you can see the Duomo from the bathroom!). It was super clean and more than big enough. As a heads up, the room set up is interesting in that one bedroom is big and has two single beds and the other bedroom is tiny and has one bed. It is tiny but we actually preferred the tiny one as it was super cosy and looked into a courtyard (the other one looked into a garden). The apartment was well equipped with everything needed for simple meals and, most importantly for Florence summers, had AMAZING air conditioning.
Basically, this place (and Antonio and his wife) is a winner.
