We rolled into Florence at sunset. The streets were full of people enjoying the nice weather. The first delight was that the apartment is just a half block from the famous Ponte Vecchio. We were greeted by the wife of the family who helped us carry our luggage to our apartment and gave us a lot of friendly help acquainting ourselves with the apartment and all of it's amenities, which were substantial. The apartment itself was very elegant, modern and well decorated. The bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen were all well done, comfortable and clean. Flat screen TV and a good internet connection! To add a finishing touch they provided a bottle of wine, biscotti and a bowl of fruit. This is a great value for anyone traveling Italy and you will not find a more accommodating host.
