Francesca's apartment is wonderful! It's on a quiet street, yet walkable to all of the main sites of Florence. The apartment is large, clean, well furnished and tastefully decorated. The air conditioning and washing machine were welcome additions! The apartment is up four flights of stairs but you can soak in the tub with a view of the duomo! Communication was excellent and Francesca even gave us a bottle of wine as a welcome gift. If I'm ever lucky enough to come to Florence again, I would definitely want to stay in this fantastic apartment!
