Ivana was the perfect host. From our first contact, she went the extra mile to ensure our first visit to Florence was a success. We received advice, recommendations and an abundance of information, which clearly conveyed her passion for all things Florentine. The apartment exceeded all expectations! A beautiful, tasteful home which Ivana is delighted to share, which is a welcome retreat after a day of exploring the city. Ivana, from first meeting, conveys a warm, hospitable welcome and we enjoyed exchanging work/life experiences with both Ivana and Stephano, over a cool drink, when we arrived. The neighbourhood is ideal for all the sights of the city, all within easy walking distance. Again, with the help of Ivana, we discovered the delights of nearby bakery, cafes and restaurants, all of which matched Ivana's descriptions. We were so grateful!
