I was so happy to land in Florence from Seattle and see all the space of this apartment! I was especially happy to take care of my jet-lag in such a nice big comfy bed (slept 12 hours straight my first night, and awoke ready for the world!)— a good bed is so critical!! Typically on my travels I avoid touristy centers, but this location was prime in a great way, especially on my first trip to Florence, since all major points of interest for “Day 1” are right outside—and being next to the Duomo, I could always find my way back super easy, even when my phone died haha. As I said, I appreciated the spaciousness of the apartment, particularly after long day trips and laundry. Plus I had this whole huge terrace to myself. Wi-fi was super efficient, not a moment’s flaw; building super secure. Really appreciated the multiple books about Florence and Italy in the flat— great to have as I was flying by the seat of my pants on this trip. Also, I live in the downtown of a major city so city noise doesn’t bother me in the slightest at night, but even if you’re a traveler from more quiet areas and are sensitive to nightly sounds on the weekend, the comfort of the bed can more than make up for any city sounds of cheer! Appreciated Mirko’s local tips. Getting in and out was a breeze. No hot water or water pressure issues. Loved the sun coming in in the morning thru the curtains, and sipping my coffee on the terrace. Staying again on my wait out of Florence. Thanks, Mirko!
