We stayed for 3 nights during St Jean de Baptist celebrations, and had a great time in Florence. The location of Silvana’s place was just a short walk from all of the festivities and the town centre. The road is busy, and I am a light sleeper, but that is my own problem, as this is what you get when staying in town. The apartment was very well equipped (except for no wine glasses..in Italy?) and very clean, fresh and new. Our only problem was that the air conditioning wasn’t working (obviously outside of Silvana’s control, and just ‘one of those things’), but it was 32 deg and we had just cycled for 6 days in Tuscany, so we were ready to cool down. Silvana was very responsive to messages, and check in was very smooth and accommodating!
