Mattias welcomed us as Elena was away at the time but Elena was in email contact at all times, as was Mattias who solved a minor problem for us.
The studio was fairly central and an easy walk for us from the train station. We walked easily around Florence as the shopping, tourist sights, etc were close.
Elena provided some cold water, juices, fruit,biscuits for us which was greatly appreciated when we arrived. She also left a map of Florence which was invaluable to help us find our way around. The fans were also great when the temperature rose.
We loved Florence and are looking forward to coming back..
