Leonardo’s place is FANTASTIC, centrally located from the Uffizi Gallery (The David), the Duomo, it is in the heart of the shopping district, close to cafe’s, bars and eateries etc.
The apartment was spacious with great amenities that we weren’t expecting like water, milk, butter, jams, cheese, bread, biscuits, croissants, cake, coffee, tea and wine. We were just elated with how hospitable Leonardo is with his guests.
I will definitely recommend Leonardo’s place if you are planning a trip to Florence. Since it is centrally located, there is a bit of noise from the streets so if you are not bothered. Also there is no lift and you have to be prepared for a climb up 4 flights of stairs but the pay off is spectacular. The view from the bedroom and Leonardo’s hospitality more than makes up for the climb up the stairs. DO NOT skip over this property.
All I will say is pack light but I will recommend that in general if you are traveling through Italy.
