We had a great time in Federica's flat! It was so close to everything we could possibly want to see in Florence and the whole flat was new and bright. It was well stocked and has a lovely patio on which to have leisurely breakfasts. Yes, there are quite a few steps, as others attested, but the climb is well worth it! Federica was very responsive and attentive, and provided a great list of places to eat, which we gladly used. We would happily stay there again!
