Carla was an amazing hostess! She coordinated with us to pick us up at the train station when we arrived and even helped us with our baggage. She gave us a map of Florence and even suggestions on where we could go around the city. She was very accommodating and helpful.
The flat itself was very cute and fit our needs perfectly. There's plenty to use if you need to cook (although we recommend taking Carla's suggestions and trying the delicious Florentine cuisine!).
The location is very central, right around the corner from the Duomo. We loved the central location and the lively area. Very light sleepers might be forewarned: the bells at the nearby bell tower ring at 7am each morning, but they are a beautiful start to the day. We highly recommend staying with Carla, since she's been the best host yet!
