Location location location! You are in a peaceful neighborhood yet steps from cafes and one of the best gelato stands and only 2 blocks from the river and minutes from most of Florences' major sites. If you want to be in the heart of everything yet still want the feel of a Tuscan cottage this is the place, it is so charming and has a gorgeous garden in the back. Monica is so sweet and helpful and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the apartment to anyone. Best rental in Florence.
