Luca's place was great! We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment at the end of April. The beds were very comfortable, WIFI was excellent, the elevator worked (apartment is on the third floor) and it was quiet. The location can't be beat--it is literally right around the corner from Ponte Vecchio and walking distance to everywhere. There was plenty of VERY hot water and the shower is large, not micro-sized as in many apartments. There is a washer/dryer--we used the washer but never could figure out how to use the dryer feature. There is a LOT of lighting and plenty of electric plugs.
If there was any more light, we'd feel like we were in an interrogation!! There are TVs in both bedrooms. Luca gave us excellent restaurant recommendations and never failed to respond very promptly to several e-mails asking questions or for suggestions. If we come back to Florence for a fifth time...we'll stay at Luca's!
