We had a very pleasant stay at Bosi's Art House. We found Marco´s wife, Gulia, waiting for us and she showed us around. The apartment is well situated, well equipped and has everything that is promised on the website. It is a pleasant, clean place to stay, cool during the hot days, with nice paintings and other art works on display, and small details in a well designed decoration. We felt at home right away.
For a runner like me, it is very well situated for a good run along the Arno river.
Any question we had before arriving and during our stay, Marco responded right away by text messages.
Internet is good for checking mail and such, but not for heavy downloads.
Reaching the city centre was very easy. At the first day we bought a week ticket for public transport at the ATAF office near the train station (the tramway stops in front), so we could use any bus we liked.
Hiring a car at the Hertz right across the street was easy as well, but rather expensive.
Local restaurants are few, but we liked them for being ‘local’ and quiet, away from the touristic buzz (cross the broad street with the tramway, pass the Supermarket PAM and turn to the left; walk some 200 m, enter the entrance 26 April on the right side or a little pizzeria-ristorante on the left side of the road).
