Paola’s apartment in Florence is beautifully decorated and very relaxing. We truly enjoyed living like a local resident in Paola’s apartment. In our opinion, the apartment is located in one of the best spots of all of Florence. It is located on a quiet street very near many vibrant streets that have endless choices of restaurants, gelato shops, and other local types of shops. The apartment was the perfect size for my family of three. The bedroom is lovely and the double bed is extremely comfortable. There is also a loft with an additional double bed if needed. The apartment is very quiet and we loved coming back to our home away from home each day after exploring Florence. When we first arrived, we were able to get into the apartment very easily. Paola left a beautiful bottle of wine for us to enjoy. Although we did not meet Paola in person, she made sure we arrived safe and sound to her apartment. We were having some trouble with our international calling service. Paola became concerned that she couldn’t get in touch with us. So, she arranged to have her friend and neighbor come by and check on us. We talked to Paola on her friend’s cell phone and she was just lovely. We found this to be a very nice touch. The apartment is within walking distance of many of the major sites of Florence. We walked by the beautiful Duomo several times a day and never got tired of its history and beauty. The apartment is also located near the Uffizi Gallery, the Galleria dell’ Accademina, and the Basilica di Santa Croce. We particularly enjoyed tasting all the wonderful foods in the Mercato Centrale Firenze. We would highly recommend Paola’s apartment to anyone that wants to explore and enjoy Florence in a perfect apartment in a perfect location. Thank you for a wonderful stay Paola.
