The neighborhood was very charming and close to many museums, cathedrals, shops and street fairs, everything you'd like to see in Florence. The apartment was clean and cozy offering a mini refrigerator, washing machine, plenty of blankets & pillows. Our host was extremely polite, knowledgeable, and hospitable with providing us with a map of the area as well as helping us arrange taxi's to the airport and parking for the rental car. Huge help and made us feel at home!
