We had a lovely stay at the Terrace on the River Arno. The apartment was much larger than I expected, and very well-appointed. It was located a comfortable walking distance to the City Center and to city bus stops. We even ventured by foot all the way to the train station, although it is a little bit of a distance. The hosts were exceptional, responding to inquiries quickly and courteously, and were eager to assist with minor challenges that come with exploring a different country. Terrace on the River Arno proved to be the perfect setting for a group of 7 exploring Florence and the surrounding Tuscany area for the first time. I would highly recommend it.
