Michele's apartment was absolutely wonderful. He allowed us to check in a tad earlier than check-in so we could drop off our bags and was very easy to communicate with via email. The apartment itself was clean, nicely decorated and felt like home! There was even water filters in the fridge which was a godsend in Italy (you'll have to pay for water at restaurants). The view of the duomo from upstairs is awesome and the balcony is a fun place to sit and relax after a long day of walking around Florence. The location is also wonderful as its a short distance from the train station and the galleria dell'accademia (5-6 min walk). It's also about a ten minute walk to the duomo. Overall, a truly amazing place to stay in Florence. I highly recommend this to anyone staying in Florence!
