Giovanna's place was bigger and better than we expected. The photos do not do it justice. Everything in the home was clean and welcoming. Everything worked perfectly and was very comfortable. We were most impressed by the location. If your not familiar with Florence as we weren't before visiting, it's located in what I consider the most beautiful square. There are restaurants outside the door to the building and beautiful music in the square at night. For us Florence was the place we just wanted to soak up the peaceful and pleasant atmosphere. Sitting in the square listening to the beautiful music was very romantic and is one of our favorite memories. The apartment though was very quiet and we didn't hear any noise while sleeping.
