Expect a great location with good restaurants nearby and easy access to the main tourist spots of the city. It is very old and quite run down. The photos look much better than the actual apartment. Unless you are short and slim the access to the building and shower room are challenging. If you have a push chair look for something else. It is not quiet, scooters line the street and noisy drivers come and go loudly at any time of the day. The building opposite is undergoing renovation. Bells ring at strange times which is part of the Florence experience. Avoid if you are a light sleeper.
