Federica's apartment was lovely, modern and very well maintained. The outdoor terrace was a beautiful bonus.
Perfect location to explore Florence. It was about a 10 minute walk from SMN train station. My wife and I stayed for 3 nights, and everything we wanted to do was within walking distance. (Duomo, Uffizi museum, the San Lorenzo markets.) Breakfast was a few doors down at either the bakery or the sandwich shop, and lunch/dinner locations as suggested by Federica were delicious! There is also a supermarket (Carrefour) a few minutes away. Very convenient.
We didn't meet Federica, but met her partner Jacopo who very kindly helped with taking our luggage up the flights of stairs when we arrived. He kindly went through a list of recommendations and useful places to visit that Federica had prepared earlier. During our stay, Jocopo was very responsive to our queries (via messaging). Federica also messaged us to check in on us, which was lovely.
At the end of our stay, Jacopo provided taxi numbers for us to call to pick us up and take us to Avis downtown.
Lastly, Wifi connection in the apartment was excellent. (Which was really important for us personally.)
We were very happy with our stay and highly recommend this top floor apartment for anyone looking for a modern place with central location in Florence.
Thanks again Federica and Jocopo!
