Carlotta met us at the apartment and showed us where everything was and how it worked. Her place was nicely done and had everything we needed. The bus stop is 1/2 block from the apartment and the bus takes you right into Florence. There is a restaurant about a kilometer down the hill (Da Ruggero) that had some excellent food. The only real issue was there isn't an easy way to get to / from a grocery store so if your driving I suggest you stop before you get there. We would definitely recommend staying at Carlotta's place. She was prompt and had great communication. Thank you for a great stay.
