Could not recommend the apartment more highly as the perfect place to stay in Florence!! It was the best airbnb apartment by far that we stayed in during our 5 weeks spent travelling across Europe. Located in a very secure complex (with lift) it is in a fantastic central location directly across the road from the Accademia Museum, the Duomo is at the end of the street, and Firenze s.m.n train station and Ponte Vecchio also within walking distance. The apartment is extremely quiet (no noise from the street can be heard) and beautifully appointed, all brand new linen, kitchen cookwear and appliances making for such a pleasant stay. We stayed during the middle of summer with 40c temperatures - the air conditioning in all rooms worked exceptionally well and was a welcome relief from the heat outside.
Cristina was a gracious host, meeting us on arrival, providing us with maps and guidebooks and organising a taxi for us on our departure. We also accidently left behind a large amount of money and credit cards in the safe in the apartment, on discovering our oversight days later Cristina was so helpful and honest in assisting us with having the items returned to us in Australia !! Could not recommend enough, will definitely be back on our next visit to Florence!
