Great location and great apartment. There were 4 of us back end baby boomers traveling. We were in Florence for 4 days and wanted a break from hotels between Rome and Venice. It was nice to have a little space to move around, talk, and have coffee or wine to begin and end our days. Sibilla was a wonderful host who worked with us to get our bags stored and met us at checkin to go over the apartment and answer questions. I've been blessed with some physical challenges so I was concerned about getting into the apartment. I had no problems getting up and down. The lift worked great but there is one step and a heavy door to consider for those who are looking for this info. As for location, you're a short walk to everything and there is a taxi stop right outside the door. We were all very happy with our apartment choice!
