Having just spent 1 month living at Vanni's place, I really enjoyed it. The apartment is located on the second floor with elevator of a typically residential Florentine neighbourhood. It felt very safe at all times. Coop Supermarket and the bus that takes you to and from the centre of town are extremely close by. For those that like to walk, strolling along the Arno river to the city centre was a very nice experience, taking about 30 minutes at a leisurely pace. The apartment itself is modern, comfortable and much bigger and better than I expected. The shower worked really well, as did the Wi-fi, the bed was super comfortable, there was a balcony with a lovely view of the Fiesole hill and having Pay TV was a wonderful highlight for me. Vanni's mum met me at check-in and kindly showed me how everything worked. Vanni was always quick to respond to my questions and was very helpful and kind. If there's one negative, it would be the street noise but this of course cannot be helped. Overall, I would recommend staying at Vanni's place.
