We stayed in the apartment for almost three months. It very soon came a real “home away from home”. What I loved the most was how quiet it is and I slept well there. It is very well equipped with all you need in the kitchen, the shower is very good and a washing machine. There are two small balconies, which I enjoyed. The apartment is both tasteful and practical.
The location is in the north of Florence at the foot of the beautiful Fiesole hill. There is not much going on in the neighbourhood but the attraction for us was the near vicinity to the European University Institute. There are good bus connections to downtown Florence. We recommend to use Piazza San Marco (about 15 min) to go off and on as it almost doubles the bus ride to juggle the streets down town to Santa Maria Novella.
Last but not least a very good relationship with our host, Annalisa, and her family developed into real friendship. Annalisa and her sister Michaela were outstanding in their helpfulness at any time.
