The apartment is on a hill - be prepared to go up and down lots of steps while you're visiting Firenze. The view from the apartment that overlooks Firenze is incredible, so it totally makes it worth it. I recommend choosing this apartment because of its location - living on the south side of the Arno river is way cozier than the north side, and you have access to lots of good restaurants on Via di S. Niccolò. Everything you need is within walking distance, including their local affordable grocery store, which is a five-ten minute walk from the apartment.
