My fiancé and I stayed here on a vacation to Florence. This place is a short 10 minute walk from the Duomo and most other main attractions, and we liked that we were a little walk away from them. There is a market close by to get groceries to cook at the apt. We did not have any issue with the bar below being loud. The bathroom is a designed a little small so that made it challenging for both of us to get ready. Laura was great to work with and always responded promptly.
