Elena's place was just wonderful and what we were looking for in Florence Italy. The apartment was very clean, and the bed and shower were a welcome after spending 3 nights in Cinque Terre. The location was close to everything, but we discovered quickly that we needed to travel by taxi from the Train Station. After having lunch close to the apartment, the host showed us the apartment and provided us their favorite things to see and restaurants to eat at. We are planning to return next September.
