I had a lovely stay at Marina's beautiful apartment. It looks just like the pictures and it was great to be able to do some laundry as I was half way through my travels. The apartment is beautiful and quite large compared to hotels or any other place you would stay. The location was great, just steps away from Basilica di Santa Croce and an easy walk to the main attractions of Florence. The best Gelateria is nearby too, Gelateria dei Neri! Go there. Marina was very friendly and was waiting for me when I arrived. She showed me everything I needed to know about the apartment and gave me a map and list of restaurants in the area. I only wish I stayed longer than 2 nights. Thanks for everything Marina!
