Francesca and her family were outside the apartment to greet us when we arrived. The guide book she assembled is packed with helpful tips on restaurants and places to explore. She left us with a lovely bottle of wine from the family’s nearby vineyard. The apartment was immaculately clean with a well-stocked kitchen and everything we needed for the week. The location is perfect, just a 5- or 10-minute walk across the river from the busy main attractions. We loved exploring the quiet neighborhood filled with local crafts people and affordable restaurants. A pleasant surprise around every corner. Check-out was a breeze. Would definitely stay here again if we are ever fortunate enough to be back in Florence. Thanks Francesca.
