Spending 5 nights in Florence during the height of a very hot summer, it was always going to be exhausting. Thankfully the apartment is in a central location that we could escape from the heat and crowds and rest up during the afternoon before going out for dinner. The surrounding area is full of vibrant cafes, pubs and restaurants which was great, but on the flip side can be noisy at night if you are a light sleeper. … after all, it is in a busy city. The apartment is fully equipped and everything was spotlessly clean and carefully thought of. Little touches like milk and cold water for the fridge was welcoming. Just a note to consider, again being a beautiful old building, there is no lift up to the top floor - but if I could manage it after having a recent hip replacement I’m sure most people can. Luckily my son carried our luggage up and down.
Alessandra is a lovely host that communicates promptly and even organised a taxi for us to go to the airport. Ciao Florence!
