Our four days in Florence were enhanced because we were fortunate to stay at Lorenzo's beautiful and impressive apartment - smack dab in the heart of Florence! For us, the location was ideal. Beautiful shops, main squares, galleries, restaurants - all were within walking distance.

From the moment we entered the apartment, we were captivated. Lorenzo has taken every consideration to ensure that guests feel welcomed and at home. The apartment is extremely spacious, full of natural light from the large and numerous windows and patio doors, has a fully equipped kitchen, beautiful decor, and an incredible overall design. The ceilings are about 14 feet high, and the rooms have been painted in a traditional manner to reflect the historic nature of the building.

Lorenzo had a "welcome" gift for us - wine and grapes. He also provided us with coffee, tea, sugar, water and milk which were thought was extremely thoughtful and generous.

The bonus for us with this apartment was the long, outdoor balcony that overlooked one of the main pedestrian and shopping streets as well as the local leather market. We loved the hustle and bustle of our surroundings, and always felt very safe and part of the energetic environment.

Overall, we could not have asked for or envisioned such a beautiful, charming, comfortable, and spacious apartment in the heart of Florence.

When we return to Florence, this is the only place we will ever stay again! Lorenzo was kind, considerate, extremely helpful, and went out of his way to ensure our stay was top-rate. It is a special place that we would highly recommend.
