Great apartment in the heart of Florence. The location was prime- just a short walk from the train and from the center of town. We loved being able to walk everywhere. Of course, with our luck, we ended up in Florence during the heat wave. Temperatures reached the low 100s! Since the apartment is on the top floor and doesn't have AC we were pretty toasty. Bianca had purchased 2 fans for us which helped circulate the warm air and made our stay much more pleasant. We ended up all sleeping in the back room because it was so warm and used both fans which made the space cooler for sleeping. There are bars and cafés right down stairs so there was noise at night but nothing too crazy. Overall I would definitely do it again. We had a prime location, great host and a lovely stay in Florence!
