An absolutely beautiful apartment in a perfect location. Monika is a fabulous host and took the time to show us her favourite places to visit and the best restaurants. You absolutely MUST try the Florentine steak at the restaurant she recommends - it was incredible.
We were very grateful for the air conditioning, as well as the lift (the apartment is on the second floor and the steps wouldn’t have been pleasant with our big cases!).
There is a car park directly opposite the tower - we didn’t realise this, but you can drive into the city’s ZTL zone if you stay in one of the private car parks. They will park your car for you and place your number plate on the city’s ‘white list’, so you can come and go as you please. This was worth every penny as the only other option is to park outside the city walls (much like Lucca), otherwise you will be fined for entering the zone.
The bed was huge and very comfortable - we slept very well.
I highly recommend Monika’s apartment in Florence. It’s incredibly unique, beautiful and comfortable. You won’t be disappointed.
