We loved our stay here in Pistoia! The apartment surpassed our expectations from the pictures...pics don't do this place justice! Rustic and charming, comfortable and cozy, but with plenty of modern upgrades to make it easy. The host thought of everything....we had coffee pods, sugar, seasonings, paper towels, toiletries in the bathroom, even laundry soap! The view from the kitchen is beautiful....especially the sunset! And i fell in love with Pistoia! It is charming, walkable, and even though it is a small town there were plenty of shops, restaurants, bars, and outdoor markets going on. This apartment is the perfect location in town, with a park across the street and a beautiful church you can see from the window. Im so glad we opted to stay outside of Florence! Only a few things to mention: the shower is awesome, but dont adjust the water direction with the curtain open like i did or you will wet the whole bathroom, and the temps were mild while we were there (early June)so we were fine, but it may get hot later in the summer, the portable air conditioners might not keep up. Overall, i highly recommend this beautiful apartment! Also good to note: we took a taxi initially from the train station with all our stuff, but the rest of the time we walked to/from the train station easily. 15 min walk.
