Caterina was a very wonderful host. When we had questions she went out of her way to help us such as calling us a taxi for our early morning departure and giving us amazing restaurant and gelato shop recommendations which only locals know about. The central location was great for walking to all the sites we wanted to visit. The flat is also very close to the train and bus station which allowed us to easily take several day trips to trips to Lucca, Pisa, and Chianti region. It was courteous and thoughtful of Caterina to leave us citronella candles since during our week stay in October there were some mosquitos. Overall we had a great experience in Florence staying in the Pietrapiana flat!
