We loved our stay at Josephine’s place. She was a kind and generous host and the place was clean and tidy with many great touches of art and trendy furnishings. Apartment had everything we needed, comfortable bed and air conditioning (we stayed in summer) as well as a washing machine and iron. The stairs to the apartment are a bit steep when you have heavy luggage but it’s a great way to burn of all the gelato. The walk to the train station or the main sites was about 20-30min, sometimes this felt a bit long, but we enjoyed walking next to the river. An extra pillow each could also help for those that prefer to sleep with two. The tv wouldn’t play our USB and wasn’t a smart tv, but that could always be upgraded later. Wifi was really good. It was also nice and quiet in the evenings, which certainly wouldn’t be the case in other areas around Florence. This is surely one of the best value for money spots in Florence. Thank you Josephine!
