The Blue Pearl apartment is located in the center of Florence just a few blocks from the Duomo! The central location allowed my wife and I to visit with our daughter studying abroad in Florence! She was within walking distance to the Agora Cafe to grab a cornetto con crema (a croissant filled with pudding cream) and a cappuccino in the morning! Angela met us at check-in and she is a wealth of info regarding places to eat, see and transportation! I highly recommend the Blue Pearl or her other two apartments: Red Pearl and Violet Pearl!
