Our stay at Alessandra's apartment was perfect in every aspect. Whether it was the closeness to the main tourist attractions (duomo) or the central station (10 minutes walk) or the main eating cafes.
We walked from the Santa Maria novella to the apartment by the directions given by Alessandra and reached within 15 minutes. At the apartment, her sister Serena attended to us and helped us very enthusiastically with every question. She even marked us the main attractions on the map and showed us our way around Florence. Alessandra had prepared a list of the famous Italian restaurants which was of great help because of which we didn't miss out on any authentic florentine/ Italian food!
She had also called to make sure everything was in place and whether we were comfortable or not as it was our first airbnb experience.
The apartment looks exactly like in the pictures, cute and cosy. One of the best things about it was the quite area it was in, as one doesn't want to sleep with all the noises of the cafes and bars. Also, the icing on the cake was that there was a lift in the building which so I've heard is quite rare in Florence.
Over all we had a very comfortable and pleasant stay and definitely recommend this apartment to whoever is coming to Florence.
