Really a remarkable place. Beautiful and spacious two-story apartment in a prime location. We were thrilled with our stay and can't recommend it highly enough. Well-furnished - we were glad to have the washing machine and espresso maker in particular - and the bed was comfortable. The public square at the corner has a great little wine bar and the best gelateria we found in Florence (single-scoop cones are just 1 euro, try the grapefruit and the raspberry). Very short walk to the Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens in one direction and the Uffizi in the other direction (just over the bridge), and we had no problem getting to the apartment by walking from the train station (though it is about 20 minutes or so, and involves some small roads that may be tougher with young children given the scooters and taxis buzzing about). Don't miss the nearby Trattoria Giovanni.
