Lorenzos apartment was a perfect way to stay in Florence in a quiet cool neighborhood- Porto Romana seems to be a locals favorite spot to stay. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the river and there are many great shops and restaurants along the route. Lorenzo was a kind and professional host and the spot made us feel at home, with a weekly cleaning service which was lovely. I rented the top floor apartment as well for my mother and her friend, if you would like to check out that review I offer some more opinions. We would definitely stay again. Grazie!!
