I had the most incredible time in Florence staying at Matilde's charming home in Via Romona. Matilde was away at the time of our visit, but we were greeted by her wonderful mother when we arrived and were put in contact with of one of Matilde's friend to help us with restaurant recommendations etc while we were there which was very helpful. The flat is in a perfect location just down the road from the heart of Florence and all the main sights, but at the same time, its tucked away from all the hustle and bustle so it was peacefully quiet at night! The flat is also close to some magnificent restaurants and boutique shops for any ladies wanting to do some shopping! We had the most beautiful view of the Boboli Gardens- one of Florence's most famous landmarks. We spent the few days we had in Firenze walking in and around the streets and visiting many galleries and restaurants and on our third day took a bus right outside the apartment to the main station and went to Siena for a day which was a real treat. Matilde's flat is perfect for a couple - it was clean and rustic, had all the utensils we needed. I really felt the true experience of Italy being in her home. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to visit Tuscany.
Ciao!
