We loved Mirella's apartment and the location was perfect! We had a very smooth checkin with Mirella (she had kept in contact with us as our train was delayed) and met us with bottles of cold water, juice, and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate our anniversary!
Even with the heat wave, we soon learned how close we were to everything in the city and managed to walk everywhere. We quickly discovered our two coffee bars within 2 minutes of the apartment to start each day (after a quick espresso in the apartment) and then would walk a few steps to the Duomo, Piazza Vecchio or other locations.
The apartment was perfect for our family of four (incl two teenagers). It was extremely clean, spacious, and up to date . . . we also really appreciated the large bathrooms/showers.
Mirella was extremely responsive throughout our trip planning as well as during our stay in Florence. She had noted that there was the potential for a taxi strike during our stay which could impact our ability to get to the airport. Over the next few days, she would provide us updates on the strike and options for help us out . . . as it turns out, the strike was delayed, but Mirella and her husband still met us the last morning to make sure we found a taxi. We would definitely stay here again.
