Like all the other reviewers, we had a terrific time at Giovanni and Claudia's apartment. The apartment itself is lovely - neat, clean, well-furnished and supplied. We shopped at the neighborhood grocery store and went out for gelato in the evening. We took advantage of the opportunity to do a load of laundry! We had no trouble getting in and out of downtown Florence on the bus. The air conditioning was strong (not something we've found we can depend on in Italy), and the wifi was invaluable. Of course, the parking was also key. Giovanni and Claudia were completely accommodating with regard to coordinating our arrival and departure, and just very friendly, kind people. A great experience!
