Our experience staying at Michele's apartment overlooking the Duomo was wonderful! We arrived early (after getting lost driving in Florence...), and he allowed us to get into the apartment early. The apartment's location is perfect - a short walk to all of the sights of Florence. The best part was the patio with the view of the Duomo. We enjoyed wine and dinner out there, and it was a dream! The apartment was clean, decorated beautifully, and provided all of the necessities and luxuries for a great stay. We will definitely return!
