Staying on the Piazza della Signoria is amazing!! Each afternoon, when we’d come back for siesta, we’d open the windows for a bit to listen for an orchestra playing below us as well as an opera singer! It was magic! And the views are amazing! We really appreciated being met by a host who gave us a walk through of the apartment. There is a lift to the 4th floor, then stairs to the 5th floor. The apartment is so unique and cool. Fun to imagine being an aristocrat living in a palace right across from the Medici in Renaissance times.
