Silvia is extremely kind and accommodating. Her place is in a perfect location on a quiet street that's walking distance from tons of great restaurants and everything you'll want to see in Florence. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay in addition to recommendations for restaurants and things to see and do. One thing I will say is that when mapping the location, there are two of the same apartment numbers on that street and they're not right next to each other. The numbers are either in red or black by the door so Sylvia clarified in her instructions that we need to go to the black number and not the red number which was helpful as we came upon the red number first based on the direction we came from. Google's instructions also mapped us to the red number. If the same happens to you, just keep walking down the street further and you'll hit the black number. We absolutely loved Florence, we enjoyed our stay at Sylvia's, and we look forward to another trip in the future.
PS check out Osteria Pastella for dinner, make a reservation, and get the truffle pasta. You're welcome in advance.
