This is a brilliant open plan apartment suitable for couples and families. It is extremely well equipped, modern and very clean. The only thing we had to buy was food and bottled water for our stay. The location is excellent with a large supermarket 2 minutes away and Florence itself a 15/20 minute walk away. There is a nearby soft play area for young children and a park, (Giardino Dell'Orticolturea) that our children particuarly liked playing in after a busy day in town. The owner is English and was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. He gave us information about how to get around on trains and buses as we had no car and he even sent me a timetable of the trains from Pisa in advance. Florence is an amazing place to visit. There is so much to see and do. Our 8 and 10 year old especially enjoyed the Leonardo Da Vinci museum, the Boboli Gardens and a trip up to Fiesole on the number 7 bus. They also loved all the ice cream shops and were delighted to find a Lush and a Tiger Tiger store too! Going to the Uffizi and walking past the Duomo every day was an absolute treat. A trip to Italy is also less expensive than you would imagine. In our opinion, the pizza restaurants in Florence were much cheaper and nicer than British ones and if you book an easyjet or ryan air flight in advance it is much more cost effective than booking a package deal. Public transport is very reliable and easy to use and there is even a coach that takes you direct to Pisa airport from Florence train station.
We were very pleased with our stay in this apartment and would most certainly recommend it to our friends and families without hesitation. We would love to return one day.
