We were actually looking at hotels as well and my daughter preferred this apartment. It worked out great for the three of us she was able to have her own room; we appreciated the air conditioning in both rooms. As most reviewers have mentioned, it is in a great location. You can walk to anywhere in Florence within 10 to 20 minutes. We also really loved that it was off the beaten path just A hair so you felt like you could get a little bit of a respite. Bathroom facilities were in great working order and comfortable. Nice shower, nice tub. The beds were comfortable and I slept well on it from the first night. The instructions upon check-in were easy and Ricardo met us at the door brought us and Scheidt and got us situated. Communications were easy until then and Ricardo was extremely responsive. I thought there were no surprises here. I had read all the reviews and was even a little bit nervous as I had never done Vrbo overseas… But it couldn’t have been better! ##### Amy V.
