Leila let us stop by a few hours early to drop off our bags so we wouldn't have to carry them around until check in. She was so nice and welcoming. She provided us with food for dinner and breakfast and gave us a tour of the apartment. We asked her about things to do in Florence and she had many great suggestions. The apartment was clean and had a nice porch overlooking courtyards and rooftops below. The apartment was about a 10 to 15 minute walk from the train station, academia, and the duomo but it was close to things on the opposite side of the river such as little shops, restaurants, gardens and parks. It was a very nice place to stay as the neighborhood was quiet and clean.
