Mara was the perfect host and obviously an experienced Airbnber! She kindly provided orange juice, tea & coffee along with some breakfast cakes.
The apartment is simple and very clean. It is will situated close to the centre of Florence and very near the main train station. It is a great base for exploring this beautiful city.
Obviously Firenze is packed with great options for eating and drinking but we thought we would drop in a few recommendations from our trip. Firstly "Ditta Artigianale" just south of the river does amazing cocktails and has an outstanding selection of spirits (particularly gins) as well as knowledgeable and friendly bar staff to talk you through them. It's also a great coffee and breakfast place too. Another great place we would recommend for cocktails and food is Sei Divino on via Borgo Ognissanti. For an interesting change from standard Italian fare, try "5 e Cinque" a vegetarian/vegan restaurant with an amazing menu and friendly, chatty staff. Finally, to sample Firenze's famous bistecca try La Fonticine on via Nazionale.
