Ilaria met us outside the apartment and was there when we left. She was polite and charming, very welcoming. She called for cabs when we needed them and made recommendations for nearby restaurants. In short, she was a perfect host.

As for the apartment, it was very clean and spacious. Equipped with AC and a full kitchen, it was very comfortable. It is unbelievably located, next door (literally) from the Uffizzi and one block from the Ponte Vecchio. The view from the 4 windows is of the river. We cannot recommend her place enough.
