Alessandro’s place was PERFECT!!! WiFi was excellent, location was ideal, bed comfortable, water pressure and amenities fabulous! It was immmaculate, modern and everything was new and very comfortable. Alessandro put a lot of passion and pride into his place. The building is gorgeous and we felt very safe and at home.
The apartment is 5 min walking distance to Ponte Vecchio and 12 mins to Duomo and museums. It’s around the corner from the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens. It’s in a quiet residential area, yet around the corner from all the action. The supermarket was a few mins away, which was helpful as we cooked breakfast and dinner several nights. However there are so many excellent restaurants, gelato and coffee shops, artisan shops, wine and little clothing stores. It’s fantastic spot, as you’re not in a “tourist area” and you can shop like the locals and not feel taken advantage of.
I didn’t want to leave, as we were quite comfortable in the apartment and we could relax after a day of sightseeing.
Alessandro’s communication was better than expected. He messaged the 2nd day to see if we had any questions and was always available via phone and email.
The bedding and towels were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and having a washing machine was a plus.
If you’re looking for a clean, convenient and comfortable apartment, you’ll be happy here.
Thank you again Alessandro! We miss Florence already. Hope to see you again!
