We had a wonderful few days staying at Fadia’s adorable, bijou apartment in the atmospheric Oltrarno district of Florence. Excellent location - lots of good places to eat nearby, a range of eclectic and interesting local shops, and between 5-20 minutes walk of most of Florence’s main attractions. Fadia herself is a warm, hospitable and communicative host, whose apartment provides a lovely ‘home from home’ place to stay, and a folder of information and recommendations that we found really helpful. We really did feel we had been welcomed into the ‘heart’ of Florence.
