This place was perfect for us! It was very convenient and quiet, private but near everything and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our stay without running to a supermarket to by necessities. We loved the location and the comfort, but our host Rachele made it the BEST! SHE was the most gracious host we have ever worked with. She communicated with us for months before our trip, met us at the location, filled the apartment with necessary and thoughtful items that made us feel welcomed and more than at home. I can't even list the thoughtful things she prepared for our stay. And, she met us the day we departed (we stayed 11 nights), and wished us a good trip home. I can't say enough about the graciousness of this host. This was our third trip to Florence in three years, and this stay was by far our best. I would give the host 100 stars if I could. We have found that there are many lovely places to stay in Italy in the last three years, but never have we worked with a host that was this professional and caring. Great accommodations for sure, but life is about relationships and one without the other leaves something important out of the equation. Here you have both and we will definately stay here again when we return to Florence.
