We stayed for a few nights with our 4yr old daughter and baby on a trip to visit friends. The apartment is on the edge of the city, but very easily accessible to the city center and all the tourist sites, without the crowds. Staying near Santo Spirito gave us more of a feel of everyday life in Firenze, which we enjoyed. Emanuele and Alexandra were great hosts, and available for any questions. The apartment was very comfortable and bonus perks for families were the toys and the crib. After many long hours of travel, our children (and us!) very much appreciated that consideration. Overall, a quiet location - around the corner from a Carrefour Express, which had everything we need, a small park, some great trattorias (might need reservations on weekend evenings), and one of the best gelaterias. There is a car park / parking off Piazza Tasso, which is a 2min walk to the apartment. If you cannot find parking, you can unload your luggage here and search the map in advance for any of the free or paid parking around the apartment.
