I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Camaldoli apartment. Being in an ideal location, and away from the tourist area, afforded me the opportunity to live like a local, rather than feel like just a visitor. At the same time, it was close to the center and all of the main attractions that Firenze has to offer.

The apartment is spacious, airy and filled with natural light. It is extremely comfortable and quiet. I've stayed in other apartments in Firenze where the bathroom and shower were less than desirable. This apartment was perfect in that respect.

I arrived when it was still hot and the air conditioning worked beautifully. I stayed long enough for it to get cold and Vanni came over immediately to set up the heat for me, which worked perfectly. Grazie!

Wifi is very important to me as I am a blogger for life in Italy and it was pure perfection.

There are restaurants, grocery stores, markets, caffes and even a fountain to get still and sparkling water nearby!

Vanni was always easy to reach and responded promptly when I had an inquiry. It was great meeting you Vanni. Thank you for letting me call your apartment home for a bit. It was hard to leave but I carry the memories I created there back to you New York City. I hope to cross paths with you again. A presto!
