Our first honeymoon stop was Florence, and we spent 4 nights at Ciro's home. The description and pictures were 100% accurate, and we felt we were in a dream when we arrived and had clear and gorgeous views of the Duomo. We were in Florence in mid-August and it was HOT, but we spent most of the days outdoors and the fan in the late evening was enough to keep us cool. We were central to EVERYTHING in the city. The city noise is loud, and I'm a light sleeper, so I brought earplugs and slept just fine. Our train was late so we arrived at the flat a few hours later than planned. Ciro got to us quickly when we arrive and helped us get our luggage upstairs. He left a couple cold beers in the fridge for us, and a few Euro for laundry...very kind and hospitable. We HIGLY recommend this flat for travel, honeymoon, etc. and cannot WAIT to return.
