We loved this apartment's location (even the climb to get to the apartment -- helped us work off the gelato!) and proximity to everything we wanted to do in Florence. The kitchen was fine for breakfast but would be limiting if you wanted to cook more seriously. The layout and space are terrific; the small-ish windows mean it is a little dark. Whimsical decor. We did not meet Stefano but he was very responsive through the AirBnB app and answered any question I had right away.
