This apartment has fantastic views from the balcony as well as from the bedrooms. It is very well located just a short walk to the Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, restaurants and shopping.
Everything worked fine, and the shower in particular was very luxurious. Sitting on the balcony with a morning coffee or afternoon drink is very peaceful, with swallows flying around among the rooftops. There was a parrot downstairs that screeched a few times, and a baby or two that cried a few times, but no big deal.
Our only regret is that we did not plan a longer stay in Florence. This is a perfect apartment from which to explore a fine city.
