BORGO S. APOSTOLI A

We had a three-night stay at Clara's apartment late Sept. this fall - our first stay here - and felt very much at home at once. Clara met us warmly, after having guided us by phone before arrival (coming by car from Rome). It seems the perfect place to be in Firenze, both for wandering around the city - 15 min. walk to Ponte Vecchio and 5 min.to the Boboli garden- and as an oasis of rest when you need that, on the beautiful terrace. For our breakfast it was a 1 min. walk down to the salumerìa at the Piazzale di Porta Romano to buy delicious food. Clara gave us very good advice of what to see, made reservations for us, and first of all was a person we enjoyed very much to talk with. Other reviews have mentioned the rooms - we felt like living in a friend's villa and enjoyed the furniture, the homely pictures on the walls and the equipment of the kitchen - and slept very well in the beds. We will come back to Firenze - and of course to Poggio Imperiale! "
