The flat is located in a very central location..5 min walk to Ponte Vecchio and Uffizi museum. 10 min walk to Academia and Duomo. Very safe location. The door is a bit tricky but just pull in when turning the key and that will do the trick. Up 4 flights of stairs so if you have a heavy bag like I did it will be a pain in the butt to drag up! Wifi didn't work at all during our stay- the only downside to this flat.
