a mixed review for this apartment:
pros:
- Great communication and arrival with the property manager. She is responsive to questions and helpful.
-comfortable bed.
-generous outdoor space, via both a small balcony off the bedroom, and a large terrace in the back of the unit.
-very fast and reliable internet.
cons:
-NOISY. Bedroom faces a busy street that's a main thoroughfare for busses and cars. traffic noise is loud and constant, even during nighttime sleeping hours.
- reviews are confusing with location. some claim it's far, and others claim it's close. It's because the distance is awkward. it's about 15 mins to the farthest edge of the city center and train station, but another 15 mins then to the main sites. So estimate an hour round trip walking to the Uffizi gallery or the Academy. there is a nearby bus, which is very frequent, but it takes about the same amount of time as walking due to the route. so still an hour round-trip but you can rest your legs if you get a seat.
-kitchen lacks many supplies needed for cooking or reheating food.
