The unit was perfect, as was its location. We couldn't have asked for anything else. The unit is located one street over from the Duomo and yes you can see it from the living room windows. We walked from the railway station with our luggage to the unit, very easy to find. Ilaria met us there. Explained all the ins and outs of the unit. Gave us a map and recommendations for coffee, a supermarket etc. She was very accommodating and friendly; we felt well supported.
The unit is clean, bright and nicely decorated. The kitchen is newly renovated with utensils for basic cooking. The bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water. A new washing machine and laundry liquid was supplied. Our clothes dried overnight even in winter! There is plenty of clothes storage in the bedroom - drawers and hanging. The bed was very comfortable. The unit has wifi which worked fine. The central heating ensured that we were comfortable and never cold.
We stayed for 10 nights and used it as a base to visit Florence and surrounds. We will be recommending the unit to our friends and would definitely stay there again. Thank you Ilaria.
