This 16th century apartment, updated, of course, is filled with antique furniture that looks great but is rather uncomfortable. We also had difficulty with the TV and could not receive Netflix the second week we were there.
But these minor inconveniences were overshadowed by the hospitality of the hostess who helped my travel partner with a medical problem, made us delicious biscotti, and gave us a tour of the neighborhood. It would be difficult to find a more generous and kind hostess.
The apartment has an elevator, for which my friend and I were grateful, and the location itself, two blocks from a very busy piazza and a short walk to the Duomo, was ideal.
My friend and I were grateful we'd chosen Fiora's lovely apartment for our exploration of Florence.
