Wow, you cannot get a better view or better located place in Florence. The Duomo is right next to the apartment, and you get a beautiful view of it on the balcony (also through a little window in the apartment). The apartment itself is nicely appointed and comfortable. Only issues to be aware of--the shower is very small. I'm a big guy, and it was a little tough turning around or moving much. Also, the wifi is provided with a portable "egg" (the apt itself isn't wired for Internet, but instead uses a cellular signal), and it doesn't work in the apartment itself. This was annoying, but you could take the egg outside, and the wifi would work fine. So basically, with the apartment, you get Internet that you can take all over the city, but which gets no reception inside the apartment itself. While a minor inconvenience, the rest of the apartment made up for it.
