My boyfriend and I stayed at Chiara's apartment at the beginning of this month, March 2015.

Chiara was a wonderful host and her apartment was exactly as shown in the photos. There was more than enough of space for two people and I think it would be a apartment for a long stay (we were only there for 3 days).

Chiara was at the apartment when we arrived. Her instructions to get to the apartment were easy and we had no trouble locating it(we took the local bus, which was a little challenging with luggage, but it's a short ride from the train station and cheaper than taxi).

The apartment was just outside of the busier parts of the core tourist areas, making it more peaceful. It was just under a 15 minute walk from the Duomo. It was a 15 to 30 minute walk to all the key tourist sites (factoring in being unfamiliar with the area).

Chiara recommended a bakery that is just steps away from the apartment. It was AMAZING. We had breakfast there every morning and wow, it was a treat! Chiara also provided useful pamphlets and information.

Overall we had no issues with the apartment. The in-house wifi was great. The place was very clean and organized. Bathroom size was really good for Italy. Bed was good. Kitchen was well stocked. Balcony was large. Building and surrounding area was really safe. There is a decent grocery store nearby. Check out was easy.

We hope to return to Florence in the future and I would definitely go back to Chiara's apartment.

Thank you for a wonderful stay, Chiara. Ciao!
