Brigitt’s flat is immaculate and homely, and it was a great base for us as we explored Firenze for a week. It’s obvious that a lot of care has gone into the decor and layout of the flat, with its very tasteful furnishings and modern appliances. It’s a joy to cook, eat and relax in, and we would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to spend time in Florence.

Brigitt kept in regular contact with us before our stay, and we’d give a thumbs up to her copious recommendations for places to eat and explore in the area; we discovered some real gems that we would never have found without Brigitt’s insight.

Brigitt herself no longer lives locally, but her parents look after the flat and its occupants marvellously. They met us promptly, and stopped to give us their advice and directions around the area. They were only a phone call away if we needed anything—or if anything went wrong—which thankfully wasn’t required.

The flat is very handy for the centre of town, at only 20 minutes walk to the hub but a lot quicker by bus. The area between the flat and town is great, with some lively bars and loads of fascinating shops, including a sizeable market with local produce and a brilliant buzz.
