The location of the apartment is great. Elena is a very passionate host who shared lots of useful information with us on getting around florence. These information had certainly help us save time and roam around more effectively. However the exeperience we had staying in the apartment was not entirely great. Future travelers have to know that the unit is facing the street and noise could be heard within 50m away, light-sleepers need to be WARNED! Would appreciate if host actually provide ear plugs to guest or install a sound-proof window. Me and my wife was woken up by the rubbish truck every morning at 7am, could get to sleep till past midnight everyday. Not only that, the wifi was not stable the entire time and electricity supply was even disrupted and we had to leave the apartment with our hair wet on a very cold day. Thank god we did not spend much time in the apartment as we were out most of the time.
