Maria Elizabeth genuinely deserves a super host status. If it was possible to give a rating of more than 5 stars she would qualify without a doubt. Let's start with communication before and after booking. Replies to queries were almost instantaneous . The apartment is super clean, spacious and equipped with every thing one could possible want. Just a small example, there was coffee, yes this is common, but we had a choice of four options - normal ground, decaffeinated ground, Nescafe instant and Orzo a coffee substitute. Never have I have that many choices since using AirBnB since 2014. The beds were very comfortable with crisp white cotton sheets. It was quite and thought not in the historical center, which can be noisy, the tram to the center was just a minute and a half walk away. It took about 15 mins to reach the center. There is a very large supermarket 30 meters away and another supermarket in a shopping center 5 mins walk away. Across the road from the apartment is a large park that can be used for jogging or running if not exhausted from sight seeing and wanting to burn off extra energy. The host has prepared a booklet with lots of useful information about Florence and surrounding area. The area surrounding the apartment has many restaurants, bars and shops. The apartment is well worth the money and I have no hesitation at all in recommending the listing. Would stay there again if in Florence.
