My stay in Firenze was so fun and having a modern, clean apartment to come home to at night was fantastic. The apartment is within walking distance of the river and touristy neighborhoods, and there are some hidden gems nearby like the Boboli Gardens and good restaurants. There was a little bit of street noise/pedestrians talking from the nearby businesses but it quieted down around midnight on both nights of my stay. I loved every second in Firenze and would have stayed another few nights at Max’s place but he was already booked up. The bed was super comfortable and everything was immaculately clean. The modern conveniences in the apartment are great. To American guests, be aware that it is commonplace in Europe to have a washer without a dryer. Also, the smell in the bathroom mentioned by a previous reviewer is likely due to sulfur in old pipes in a very old building, and an easy fix is to shut the bathroom door and not use the fan. Speaking of doors, don’t forget your key when you leave as the doors lock automatically! All in all it was the perfect place to stay. Loved every second!
