I don't know where to begin. Are you looking for an amazingly located, well-equipped, spacious flat from which to navigate Florence? If you are seeking to immerse yourself in local culture while being truly hosted by a local look no further.
Our stay with Francesca was the highlight of our 6 weeks in Florence. Francesca will, I'm certain, exceed all possible expectations for a host - she certainly did for us (and this is my 16th trip on airbnb since 2011). Do yourself a favor and save time comparing. This incredibly interesting, intelligent, charming, patient, and kind host will go out of her way to make sure that you are comfortable and well-oriented. Note that mosquito netting was installed throughout the apartment (rare in Italy) after the lovely Francesca noticed that the mosquitos were feasting on me.
Location is amazing and out of the fray of tourists. You'll be glad as you walk east of the mayhem of the center to immerse yourselves in all that is local (the San Ambrogio Market and piazza are at your doorstep!) Request to rent this apartment - you'll be glad you did!!!!
