The apartment was beautiful and as advertised in the photos. It was so comfortable that, even though I was in Florence, it was a struggle to leave home every day to go sightseeing and shopping. This will definitely be my apartment of choice when I next travel to Florence.

Elisabetta and Leonardo were wonderful hosts, very considerate and responsive. I am guessing that they are frequent Airbnb travellers themselves as they stocked the apartment with just the right amenities - a lot of what I brought for the kitchen, laundry etc. ended up being totally redundant. The furniture and fixtures were really nice, and everything was clean.

Finally, the location of the apartment is excellent. It is on a quiet street, but just a short block over there are cafes and restaurants, artisanal grocers and a chain supermarket, and a really great bakery. It is also a great home base for sightseeing since the major piazzas are easy to get to on foot and the city bus line that loops past all the major sights is only 2 minutes away.
