We began our trip in Firenze by being met by Michele on the street near the apartment. He greeted us with a huge smile and helped us to carry our bags to the apartment. The street on which the apartment is located is quaint and quiet - a nice residential area on the other side of the Arno River.

Michele oriented us to the apartment which was absolutely lovely. The apartment had great character and a lot of space for an apartment in Firenze. We felt at home immediately and enjoyed getting to know our home away from home. He prepared a lovely porta-crib for my 6-month old which was very sweet and worked out wonderfully.

We would definitely recommend this apartment to a couple or small family - it was wonderful! Centrally located and convenient yet away from the hustle and bustle of the middle of Firenze. We easily walked to the Duomo, Uffizi, and other major attractions within 10-15 minutes. I was in Firenze for work at the Fortezza da Basso which is on the other side of the city and was able to walk there each morning in about 25 minutes.

Additionally, Michele recommended two wonderful restaurants in the neighborhood - they were absolutely DELICIOUS!!!
