This place is a gem in a FANTASTIC area. This was our first time in Florence, and we were a little hesitant to stay on the other side of the river but it ended up being the best location - quiet when you’re ready to end the day, and VERY close to shops/restaurants and bars. Only note for other visitors: the stairs getting up to the apartment are 2 pretty steep flights and there are 2 doors to get into before getting into the apartment (very safe, but takes a minute). Donna was a wonderful host and easy to communicate with. Would recommend to anyone!
