Wonderful apartment in Florence in the residential neighborhood of San Frediano. Conveniently located to all the major sites as well as to local restaurants and shops. Marco was the best possible host -- communicative, responsive, courteous and helpful. The apartment is clean and comfortable, accommodating our family of four -- my husband and I in one room, with each of our grown children in the other two rooms. The space has lovely high ceilings, molding, exposed brick and wood floors. Minimal furniture. The only caveat was the construction underway on the building's facade while we were there, involving some hammering in the mornings as well as screened scaffolding, obscuring the light from the windows.
