Michaela was more than on time to meet us. We got a late start in driving to Firenze. She spent a bit of time helping us orienteer to meet an Apperitivo tour and with our map. Her directions were concise. Location: When I return to Florence this is where I will stay! It is so centrally located for going north to the Duomo area or south to Ponte Vecchio and beyond. We walked all over.Even to catch our train to Venice. IF you need to follow a gluten free diet, there is a gluten free bakery (!) called Starbene about 3-4 blocks away with amazing bakery goods and savory breads and treats. Order a sandwich on their breads to go. Apartment: It is very clean, spacious with a fantastic bathroom and well stocked kitchen down to coffee. The layout is fantastic with the two bedrooms.
