From the minute we booked Alfred's apartment we felt cared for. He and his local manager Maurizio made the check in process super easy and were extremely communicative. The apartment is in an ideal location near the famous bridge and we walked everywhere. The home is very comfortable and has everything you could need and also AC worked great. It was cool to be staying in a medieval tower and made you feel a part of Florence's history. Alfredo is a a curtious and attentive host and we absolutely will rent from him again on our next trip to Florence! We also highly recommend having lunch on patio at Hotel Lungarno across the street and dinner at Osteria Di Cinghiale, a family owned restaurant run by Marco who is a passionate and successful entreprenuer. We very much enjoyed our dinner at 3-star Michelin restaurant Enoteca Pinchiorri and did some serious shopping damage at The Mall, luxury outlets 30 min from Florenxe! Be sure to get tickets in advance of Accademia, Uffizi Gallery and to climb Duomo (you can buy tickets at museum and then make reservations for later time). In Florence, standing in the sun in very long lines is not ideal. Thank you Alfredo!
