This is a spacious, lived-in apartment in a very good area. It is two blocks south of the Arno river and one bridge east of the Ponte Vecchio. Easily a 10-15min walk to all the major attractions. If you're looking for a quieter environment, there are plenty of interesting bars and restaurants right around the corner. Travelers on a budget should check out the High Bar (or any of the spots next to it) that have a complimentary food buffet when you buy drinks. Also check out the Piazzale Michelangelo at sunset for the best view of Florence which is a 5min walk from the apartment. If you just want to relax at home, the apartment has everything you need to cook and entertain yourself, but you may need to search around for certain things. We enjoyed our stay and love the HUGE beautiful windows with loads of natural light. Friendly hosts too!
