This is an amazing apartment - it's a perfect base for exploring Florence, and Alda is an incredible host!

The location is convenient to both trains (SMN station about 5 minutes walk) and the historic centre (the main sights are all within easy walking distance), but the apartment is very quiet due to its inner courtyard location. The bed and bathroom are located on the mezzanine, and the ceiling is low enough that tall people will need to duck to avoid bumping the ceiling beams. What you see in the pictures is exactly what you get; it really is that spotless, and the kitchen is fully equipped. It's not huge, but there is plenty of space for two adults to sleep, eat, and relax.

On top of that, Alda is a true gem! She was helpful before arrival with suggestions and planning advice, and check in/out was easy because she lives next door. Her eating/drinking suggestions were spot on, and complete with maps and walking directions. Her personal welcome touches made us feel like family, and she even helped with some reservations.

This will definitely be my first choice on any return trip to Florence. Thank you, Alda, for a wonderful Airbnb experience!
