Marianna's hospitality and apartment were excellent. She had provided everything we could have possibly needed including detergent for the washing machine, washing up liquid, oils etc.
She also got us some wine and some pastries as a welcome gift and booked us a lovely restaurant called La Reggia in Fiesole for my birthday.
The apartment was quite noisy in the morning but this did not detract from our experience in Florence in the slightest. With the Duomo only a 2 minute walk away the location couldn't have been better.
