Marti and Fifi are consummate hosts and their friend Mattias, who met us, was fantastic in introducing the apartment and answering all our questions. And what an apartment! It was well equipped with kitchen, clothes washer (definitely a plus halfway through our Italy trip), and welcome gift basket from Fifi, and the terrace is to die for! 180 degree views of Florence with the Duomo front and center. Fifi sent a great list of information and events we might be interested in, and was happy to share info about Florence. With a fantastic central location minutes from all the sites you'll want to see, we highly recommend this flat!
