Letizia is a great host. She was always quick to reply to our messages/concerns prior to our arrival and met us at the apartment with her two daughters who spoke English. The apartment has a wonderful room for relaxing and dining. There are 2 bedrooms and a loft. The main bedroom has a double bed which can comfortably accommodate 2 adults. The bed in the 2nd room is slightly smaller than the double bed we were in. There are two bathrooms which suited us as we were two couples. The kitchen was great and led to a terrace where we enjoyed many home cooked meals. Letizia provided some staples in the kitchen (herbs, spices, oils, tea, coffee etc products one wouldn't buy for a short stay) which was great. There are many supermarkets dotted throughout the area suppling all food requirements.
The apartment is around the corner from Palazzo Pitti, Biboli Gardens and less than 200mtrs from Ponte Vecchio. It is in a perfect position to explore Florence as it is in walking distance to all the famous sites and museums. It is also in the same building as 'Casa Guido' the home of Robert & Elizabeth Barrett Browning during their marriage.
Thank you Letizia for the warm welcome, bottle of wine and selection of local sweets that awaited us. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 nights in your lovely apartment. It served all our needs and we highly recommend a stay there.
