My wife, two daughters and I just spent 4 days at Alessandro's apartment in Firenze. It was very pleasant on all counts. It was accurately described. It was clean and everything worked well, fully functional. Bathroom with shower, though small, is perfectly adequate. Apartment is 2 stories up so you don't get street noise, has all essential needs inside and modern features, and is well located- at the edge of the main old town making it easy to get to whilst letting you see also how normal Florentians live, and is conveniently situated close to a decent supermarket. Good value for money. We would gladly stay again. Also, Alessandro is a very helpful, reasonable and gracious host.
