Me and two friends booked Candida's apartment because we were looking for a comfortable place to stay in our first month of a university exchange year. We were quite in a hurry to find a place to stay, as we didn't book it before arriving in Florence, and Candida gave us a prompt answer to our request on the same day we contacted her. We have stayed at the apartment for a month now and everything happened way better than we hoped for.

The building where the apartment is located has a doorkeeper, which made us feel very safe. The apartment has three comfortable bedrooms, all of which have air conditioning, what was very helpful during the hot days of August. The kitchen is wall equipped with all kinds of things, making it very easy to cook at home.

The best thing about the apartment is it's location; two of the three bedrooms and the living room have views to the city, from where we can hear the sound of the churches's bells... it's wonderful! Besides the great view, the apartment is very close to the city's most famous tourist spots, such as the Duomo, the Santa Maria Novella, and Ponte Vecchio, which is as far as a 10 minutes walk.

A downside of the location might be that from the apartment you can hear the street's noise when the city awakes. I have to say though that this was no big deal for us.

One day we also had a problem with the water supply and with the air conditioning of one of the rooms, and it's important to note that Candida helped us solve these problems immediately. She is always available, and gave us much confidence during the whole time.

We had a very pleasant stay, we were very well received, and I highly recommend this appartment, for both shorter on longer stays.
