Florence was our absolute favorite place we went on our two week tour of Italy with Karen and Raffaele’s place being the cherry on top! Raffaele met us at the apartment to let us in and was so nice even when we were running a bit late. He took time out of his own day to talk to us about where to go, where to eat and even had a cute and very thoughtful map for us that Karen made with all of their favorite places in Florence to check out. And thanks to this handy map, we ate at some of the best restaurants during our entire trip!!! Their restaurant recommendations included Aquacotta (just down the street from the apartment) which was absolutely delicious and the Market Centrale which we went to for both breakfast and dinner one day (had completely different vibes in the morning vs evening) was great! The apartment itself was extremely cozy and well decorated and we absolutely LOVED the terrace!!! We honestly can’t wait to visit again!
