If you are visiting Florence, as we have done often, the Oltrarno district is the place to be, away from the madding crowds and the way Florence should be enjoyed - small piazzas, quaint restaurants, boutiques and even grocery stores to get those items that are nice to have around the house. You won't need to think about anything else though since this apartment has it all, not to mention the key element of having an elevator to get you and your bags upstairs! The apartment is light and airy and has all the amenities you'll need, including a washing machine and high-speed internet. The location is fantastic and everything you want is in walking distance. HINT: those of you unfamiliar with "Mobike" should download the app. Their ridesharing bikes are all over Florence and you can pick them up and drop them off anywhere. This is extremely convenient to get around, especially for a nice ride along the Arno. It was especially useful to us as we need to park our car far away in a public lot on our last day since garages do not open until 7 or 8 in the morning. Luca and Eleonora were extremely responsive, both in emails and texts as we arrived, so there was never any confusion. For value, I would take this any day over a hotel in town! If we're ever back in Florence, this will be our ideal choice; our research was worth it and this apartment is exactly what is represented on their great site!
