The room is described below, the jewel is Alda. We arrived early due to a rail strike and had forgotten to notify Alda. We were willing to wait and return when the room was ready but Alda graciously checked us in, went through the apartment with us and even gave us recommendations for special dining options including a very special dinner theater reservation that she arranged for us that turned out to be the highlight of our visit. On top of this, Alda worked very hard to converse with us in English (and did so very well) and finished by leaving us a wonderful homemade treat. The room was excellent but it was Alda that made our time in Florence so special. Highly recommended!
