We had a fantastic stay at Barbara's apartment. The apartment was newly renovated and was stylish and fun as well as very clean. We enjoyed looking at the unique collection of books and posters that Barbara and her husband had collected from around the world. At check in, Barbara and her husband Marco gave us many great tips for exploring Florence, and all of their suggestions turned out to be really great. The grocery store is very close to the apartment and the surrounding area was safe for walking. The bus stop is nearby, but we just walked to the center of Florence while visiting and this was also easy and took about 20 minutes. We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend staying at Books Corner!
