Alessandro and Nermin were wonderful hosts, meeting us at the outside door just as we arrived and telling us about their favorite restaurants in Florence. The apartment is in the center of Florence between the Duomo and Uffizi, but there is no noise with the windows closed. The beds were very comfortable, and the Nespresso machine was great for easy morning espresso. Alessandro responded to every text in seconds. The shower was excellent, which in Italy is a rarity!
