Claudia welcomed us with a bottle of red wine and helpful material for the city as well as lots of useful information. Her apartment is in the forth floor of a beautiful old building in the ancient city centre of Florence. It was very clean and calm (double windows in all rooms) and has everything you could ask for – coffee machine, lots of towels and plenty of smooth covers :)

Her flat is only 5 minutes by foot from the famous “il duomo” – Florence’s impressive Dome which you can see from the apartment’s living room window. Beside the Dome there are lots of nice bars and restaurants close by (Claudia having grown up in the city gave us great tips where to get the best ice cream and pizza located quite close to Claudia’s apartment).

Additionally Claudia is such a welcoming, helpful and nice host – always immediately answering any questions we had in advance and during our stay. She even managed to get us a discount for a garage directly at the flat for parking the car.

We had a very nice stay and we highly recommend her apartment to everyone who wants to spend a few days (or longer) in the heart of Florence and in such a cosy and tidy place as Claudia’s.
