Michele's home is a relaxing oasis in the business and heat of Florence in the summer. I spent two weeks there while attending school at an academy and it was a wonderful home for me. The location was great, close to grocery stores, restaurants, shopping and all the major tourist destinations in the old town. All the amenities were provided, including an air conditioner, fridge, dish ware, washing machine, iron, blow dryer etc., and the place was exceptionally clean. Michele was excellent at responding to any of my questions and providing suggestions. My only issues was the bed was a bit too firm and flat for me, but that's just me. All and all I had a lovely experience and it really made my trip to stay in such a quiet and aesthetically pleasing home.
