Andrea's apartment is ideally located and is very quiet! The large enclosed, private garden courtyard is a treasure and we used it to host outdoor dinners with friends and to have a remote outdoor "office"! Heating works great for cool Florentine nights and we never ran out of hot water. Andrea was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Upon arrival I had a few concerns, particularly about privacy issues as my bedroom had an open open doorway into the kitchen. Andrea took care of my concerns in a timely fashion, personally coming to instal a retractable door for me with friendliness and goodwill resolving my concerns to my complete satisfaction. We loved our stay at his apartment!
