Ciro met us at the apartment, showing us around and telling us everything we needed to know.
He was also kind enough to leave us some wine, fresh bread and some cakes, and also email us some fantastic tips for the local area.
The apartment itself is very comfortable, in a brilliant location; as in the photos, the Duomo can literally be seen from the main bed! It is easy walking distance to Santa Maria Novella train station, and there are lots of restaurants, cafe's etc. It is also very handy to stay so close to such a well known (and large!) landmark, as it's easy to find your way home if you get lost wandering the streets of Florence!
Highly recommended.
