My wife and I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to stay in an apartment that gave us a very authentic Italian vibe. The house was very clean, very beautiful, had an excellent view of the Duomo and a marvellous kitchen with all the amenities and thoughtful goodies. The kitchen had all the gorgeous cutlery in place. The hostess, Irina, was very warm, welcoming, informative and caring. I strongly recommend everyone to stay here when in Florence.
