Francesco's apartment is in a perfect location for those wanting to be situated between the high energy and spectacular Piazza Santo Spirito and the more neighborhood feel of Piazza Tasso and surrounding area. Everything I needed for a longer stay in Florence was within easy walking distance and I loved finding my favorite bakery, market, and bar with incredibly helpful suggestions from Francesco. Any time I had a question about something in the apartment or neighborhood he was very responsive and helpful, and Elj provided great local support and was super helpful when checking in. The wifi was incredibly strong and reliable, and the bed very comfortable. It was also great to have an efficient washing machine. I did a fair amount of cooking in and the kitchen was easy to use and felt so authentic. The apartment stays pretty cool which in the colder months requires warmer clothes and turning on the heat, and in the warmer months provides a respite from the warm temperatures. The bathroom is on the smaller side, but the water is hot and water pressure is good in the shower. I highly recommend Francesco's apartment if you're looking for a place that feels like a home in Italy.
