I cannot say enough positive things about this fabulous apartment and about Francesca as a host. It is even better than it appears in the photos! Sparkling clean! Superb location in a historic building! Wonderful touches throughout the apartment! Francesca met us and took the time to show us everything in the apartment, in addition to being very responsive to any question during the course of our stay. She has put together a very thorough binder of information for guests, with great restaurant recommendations in particular. Finally, the welcome gift of a bottle of Chianti from her family's vineyard was most appreciated (and delicious!). I have already recommended this apartment to several friends, and do not hesitate to recommend it highly to you also!
