Rita and Gisella’s place is cute, calm, and quiet and in the heart of my favorite local’s neighborhood in Florence. It’s just steps away from the shops of Gioberti and off an inner courtyard. Noise is so often an issue in Florence but I this was the first time in months that I was able to sleep peacefully at night without needing earplugs. The dehumidifier and air conditioner was also very welcome! The only tradeoff is the apartment only has small windows at the front and no views, but if you value peace and quiet (and almost no mosquitos!) then it’s a very good tradeoff. We had an issue with the parking situation not working as expected but Rita and Gisella were very helpful in trying to help us get it resolved. Thank you so much!
