Paolo met us at the apartment and showed us everything. In the refrigerator he provided us with fruit, bottled water, juice, butter, yogurt,other condiments, and even some prosciutto!

My wife and I stayed for 8 days in early July and loved this cozy apartment. It was warm each day (90F 32C) but we did not need to use the air conditioning. The fans were sufficient together with the fact that we could open the windows in the front and back and had a slight breeze through the apartment.

There are multiple bus stops within 2-3 blocks from the apartment. We used our 7-day bus passes, but also walked from Piazza della Signoria and other locations back to the apartment on most occasions.

Most bathroom showers installed in old buildings in Europe are small enclosures by American standards. The two here are no different. But, unlike other rentals and B&Bs where we have stayed, the hot water at Paolo's apartment was more than adequate for really good showers at the end of the day.

The apartment is on the 4th floor (3rd floor as Europeans count). For older folks (I'm 71), the 44 steps can be a little tiring. But if you are planning to do the 400+ steps to the dome of the Duomo, this should cause no problem.

The wifi worked well at all times, something that is not always the case in rentals.

Nice place!
