Could not have asked for a better experience - in every way. The apartment was spacious and clean and in a brilliant location close to all the sights and landmarks.

If there were 6 stars, we would give Francesca at the Palazzo Alfani all of them. She is a perfect host, the flat is spacious, right across the street from the entrance to the David. 4 Blocks from the Duomo, and close to great shopping. We loved it there.

Firstly this property is great for the price and location. It is huge and beautiful with high ceilings and a kitchen. The living room/kitchen is large and the bedroom is also large. One issue is that this property is right across from the Accademia, where David is housed, which is very convenient but it can be noisy at times. We didn’t get a car, and there where parking lots close by but it would not be easy to drive in this area. It is only about 1km from the train station though. Francesca is so kind and lovely and it was so nice to interact with her; she had many excellent recommendations. Big thanks to her!
