Annalisa and Leonardo's place is the perfect relaxing oasis tucked away from the vibrancy of Florence in the summer. My boyfriend and I began our month-long tour of Italy in Florence, and we couldn't have picked a better spot. The space is well air-conditioned and beautifully lit with natural light from the skylights above the hallway and shower. The stylish apartment is beautifully and simply decorated, with great corners and spots to tuck luggage and amenities. The shower, as others have commented is uniquely relaxing and a perfect cool down from the blistering heat of August. The apartment itself is miraculously quite, even though it's right in the heart of Florence and next to a bustling square and the central market. Annalisa and Leonardo were incredibly quick to respond to questions and helped us locate the apartment when we arrived. We were greeted with a friendly welcome and super helpful guidebook filled with their favorite restaurants, bars, and cafes. The only warning we have (which is completely out of Annalisa and Leonardo's control) are the low ceilings in the hallways and stairwells leading up to the apartment. My boyfriend is a bit tall and unfortunately smacked his head absent-mindedly a couple of times... But if you're aware, it's no big deal! If we return to Florence someday, Analisa and Leonardo's place will be at the top of our list again!
