This apartment has what must be the best view in Florence. Located in a great neighborhood near the south bank of the Arno between the Ponte Vecchio and the Ponte Santa Trinita, it has a very nearly unobstructed view of the Duomo and the rest of central Florence. Be aware though, that the view comes with a price: the apartment is 87 steps up from the street and the terrace room with the incredible view is a further 23 up from the entrance to the apartment. This aside, this apartment was a great value: it's huge with a living room, dining room, bedroom, bathroom and the terrace room where we spent all our time. It was also very clean and the Oltrarno neighborhood has everything you would wish in terms of shopping and restaurants. Lastly, Federico, the host, is the nicest and most helpful guy you would ever want to meet.
