I got this Airbnb for my mom visiting me. Location in regard to the train station is perfect. You’re not necessarily near city center but after having lived here for a couple of months, the southern part of Florence’s city center has a lot to offer as well including lots of shopping, great and not so touristy restaurants, and closer to Plazzo Vecchio, Ponte Vecchio, and Santa Croce (and Pino’s Sandwiches vvv good).
You’ve got a view of the duomo from the first window left of the entrance, but will see people across the street up on their roof with a potentially better view lol. It is 5 flights up with no elevator so be ready to climb, keep in mind that heavier bags are a bit more of a challenge, but that’s the price you gotta pay for the ‘pent house’ of the building.
Very spacious for a Florence apartment with separation from the bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. The bathroom did have a bit of an odor coming from either the shower drain or toilet, so try to crack a window
