Alberto and his family were a gracious host to myself and my fiancee. They were very clear from the beginning with communication and extremely open and helpful from several days before our arrival, throughout our stay and afterwards. We are very thankful for his hospitality.
The unit's highlight are that it is well-lit throughout the day with an amazing view of Ponte Vecchio, Arno River, Uffizi (really, can't get any better in terms of location); and sipping on a nice glass of chianti with the windows open during sunset is a MUST for this unit. This unit is located on the Oltrarno and closer to what we would consider to be the "truer" version of Florence that exists today--it seemed that more locals lived in the area and it wasn't packed with tourist groups going through 24/7, which to us, was a definite plus. Do note, since the unit is near the water, we did have some bugs/mosquitos in the unit but that's just life I suppose, but something to consider.
Overall, this is a lovely unit and we were happy that Alberto and his family allowed us to share in on the beauty.
