My girlfriends and I just stayed 2 nights at Erika's apartment in Florence and had a wonderful time. Erika was super prompt and attentive to all my questions prior to arrival and greeted us when we got in. She had cake and juice for us when we checked in and showed us around the apartment. She was extremely helpful, making suggestions for food in the area and arranging a taxi for our departure. Her dad was there when we checked out and was extremely sweet, carrying our luggage down the stairs. Overall a great home base in Florence!
