Beth Ann and her husband were lovely and welcoming hosts. Their apartment is in a fab location just a short walk from the Pitti Palace, Ponte Vecchio and Gusta piaza (where there is THE best pizza place). The apartment is clean, comfortable, homely and full of interesting ornaments. Even though it is quite humid outside, the apartment is cool so was lovely to come back to and escape the heat. There is a great supermarket less than 100 metres down the road. In the centre (about 15 mins walk) there are some fun places to go out dancing -and singing kareoke. It is also a good distance to Michelangeo's Piazza which we trekked up twice because watching the sunset from the top was the highlight of our trip! It might be an idea to bring insect repellent for the mosquitoes but you'll have a wonderful time if you choose to stay at Beth Ann's place.
