Shark's sister was at the apartment to welcome us. We were delighted with the spacious facilities - bedroom, bathroom and kitchen/sitting room. We had everything we needed, including the washing machine to catch up on washing our clothes. The apparent could not have been more convenient - close to the railway and bus stations, near to centre Florence places of interest and many restaurants. We could not have wished for better. For anyone coming from the station to this apartment our tip is take the escalator down from the station complex into the underground walkway and follow it right through until you come to the final exit which is a ramp (not stairs) when you emerge onto the street you will only be about 50 meters along the street from the apartment. Thank you Sharika for providing us with such convenient and suitable accommodation.
