The apartment was perfect. It was spacious, light, comfortable and clean. The beds were comfortable, the shower was good and there were plenty of couches and chairs to relax with the family.

The location was superb, being only about 3 blocks from the Duomo, across the road from the Accademy, with a supermarket close by. Restaurants were within walking distance.

Cristina arrived to meet us on time, even though we were running early.

One thing to note is that if you are driving you cannot drop luggage off at the front door, as you cannot enter the city centre without parking in a private garage for the night.
