Sharika's sister met us to let us in and show us around. The apartment is very spacious and has lots of natural light. There was a complimentary bottle of wine and a baby cot provided for us even though we hadn't asked for one, which was a very nice surprise. The apartment is very close to the train station (5 minute walk) and to the duomo. Unfortunately it is also next to one of the busiest streets in Florence and the noise from cars and people walking by was incredibly loud and lasted all through the night. We stayed five nights but wished it was less because of the noise. Otherwise the apartment was great and the host very nice.
