All communication with Sumiyo went very smoothly. The apartment was just as the pictures show. Clean, tidy, and pleasant to live in. Well appointed with all necessary basics were provided, and also some appreciated extras. The Location is excellent for easy walking access to Florence, and the attractions that it offers. Just over the road from Simiyo’s apartment are the Bardini gardens. This is a must see local attraction. Be aware that being so close to Florence the road is busy and can be a little noisy at night. On a personal note Sumiyo was an excellent host. We ran into a problem with taxi availability due to an event being held on the day when leaving. However Sumiyo took control and organised her friend to help out with a vehicle. This was not expected but very appreciated as we were in danger of missing a train to Venice. Well above and beyond the call of duty. She also sent us information by email of public transport at our next stop in Venice, even though we had left her apartment. This was very helpful. I can't speak too highly of her attention to our well being. Thoroughly recommend booking with Sumiyo.
