Luca's condo is in a great, albeit busy and noisy part of town. One block from the Uffizi and piazza signoria, steps from great restaurants, and within walking distance of everything in Florence. It was hard to navigate the crowds at times outside the condo as there is a very popular panini shop just outside. The alleyway is also a little noisy at night from the pubs and the carts being pulled down but after being out all day we could sleep through pretty much anything. The condo was well apportioned and bigger than we thought. No lift and the unit is up 2 flights of stairs which wasn't an issue for us. The shower is also only hot for about 5 minutes so shower quickly, especially if someone else needs to shower. Overall, it was a great unit and we would stay here again.
