Irene Vittoria’s apartment is indeed a cozy nest amidst the hustle and bustle of Florence - close to the center but away from the tourist mobs - a safe, quiet urban neighborhood boasting a respectable share of cafes, restaurants and boutiques. Kind of like Florence’s little Brooklyn. The view was indeed incredible- looking out onto Baboli park - a true rural hinterland of woods and hills on the edge of the city’s old center. The flat is fully remodelled, tastefully decorated … but homey, not sterile, with all sorts of artistic and individualistic touches …. rustic wood cabinets, kilim rugs, paintings, photos etc. A well equipped kitchen and two real bedrooms. To be aware that the shower/tub is ensuite in the master bathroom. There’s a toilet and sink in the hallway the second bedroom csn directly access. Irene was helpful and responsive throughout- thanks so much.!
