The apartment was everything we hoped it would be. We were particularly taken with the beautiful balcony, scented with lemon blossom and catching the morning sun, as we wanted somewhere peaceful to sit with a glass of wine in the evenings and this was perfect (even if the weather limited our use). The apartment is huge and well equipped, the bed in the main bedroom extremely comfortable (the only one we used). It was very easy to get into the centre of Flornce on foot (and return by bus when we were all walked out) and we loved the local area too, shopping in the Sant’Ambrogio market and eating in several extremely good local restaurants. Alessandro was an excellent host, communicating clearly before and during our stay, and we would love to return next time we come back to Florence.
