Location, Location, Location! Our family of five had a great time living in Florence for 5 days. I say living, not visiting, because the apartment is an actual Italian Flat in Downtown Florence. Hundreds of restaurants, a short walk to the main sights and to the central market. Shopping i the little markets nearby, grabbing fresh take-out pizza from across the street and enjoying cooking in a few nights after a long day. The washing machine was invaluable as well. Large bedrooms, 14 foot tall ceilings and two bathrooms near the action. We will stay here again when we come back. Artan is also an excellent and flexible tour guide. The Tuscany tour was excellent, as was his Florence art tour. He customizes based on your desires. Thanks Artan!
