Very sweet, cozy apartment with artistic touch! It was very clean and equipped with everything we might have needed even for a longer period: from cooking to washing clothes (the machine was surprisingly very silent). Vibrating with artsy flair, hidden from street in a soothingly quiet backyard the place allows for a good night's sleep. Of note, silence is one thing you will increasingly appreciate after spending few days in the historical center of Florence buzzing with tourists. The apartment is located in the Rovezzano area, a quiet neighborhood some 5 km from the city center. We used a bus n.14 to reach the center and get back.

We came to Florence by car to be able to explore the immensely beautiful countryside and hilltop towns of Tuscany. Linerina explained us where the free parking lots are available nearby and we had no problems parking our car in Rovezzano area, 300-500 m from the apartment. As for the Florence city center you can forget about your car as the inner city area is restricted for residents and for others with special permission. Even the residents don't have an easy time driving around, finding parking. But buses are frequent, costing 1.50 euro for one way ticket which you can by in a tobacco shop 50 m from the apartment. We also found taxis reasonably priced, about 15 euros for 5 km of night drive. Who gets to Florence by train, there is a stop in Rovezzano located some 500 m from the apartment.

In our opinion and experience we think this apartment has an excellent location, a nice, quiet neighborhood, away from the crowded center which can easily be reached by bus or taxi.

We found Linerina a great host. She is quick in replies, informative, helpful and overall leaves the impression of a very pleasant, educated lady.
