We had a great stay at Laura's apartment. It was perfectly located. There were shops around each corner where we could pick-up bread, cheese and meats for breakfast. Her restaurant suggestions were great. We went to the Trattoria 4 Leoni. I wish I would have ordered the spaghetti with clams (it looked wonderful) unfortunately I ordered a pasta Bolognese, which was great but the portion was a little smaller than I had hoped (that's the end of my restaurant review). The apartment was exactly as pictured. The kitchen was well outfitted and the bed quite comfortable. The sights were a quick 5-10 minute walk over the bridges and in the evenings we settled back onto "our side" of the river. The neighborhood was lively, easy to walk around and really felt great. Florence is a beautiful and wonderful city and if we return we wouldn't stay any where else. Two last quick notes: 1) Taking a taxi to her place was easy, 20 minutes and 22€, on the door there are 2 buttons with the last name Baroni, press the top one and 2) We were scrambling to get out but were able to drop the key off with her Brother which made the key drop-off easy. Laura was super warm and friendly and quick to respond. Thanks Laura!
