Isabella's lovely apartment was exactly as described. It's in an ideal location, a 5-minute walk to the Arno or the Mercato di Sant'Ambrogio, and 3 minutes from Piazza Santa Croce. The apartment was clean and comfortable, I felt immediately at home, and was able to cook many of my meals with all the delicious fresh ingredients I could purchase nearby. Considerations might be that there are no screeens and no clothes dryer, both common in Florence rentals. The apartment is on the first floor, but in Florence their first floor is a flight up so there are steps to climb, but I'm over 60 and didn't find this to be a challenge. Also, the washer is outside on the porch off the bedroom, which also seems to be common in the neighborhood. There are easy workarounds for these differences and I felt the apartment was fairly priced and wonderful to live in for a month. Also, Isabella makes excellent recommendations and is the most gracious host you could wish for. Highly recommended!
