What I really loved about this apartment was it's location. Although it sits on a quiet residential street, it's only about a 15-30 minute walk (depending on how fast you walk) from the Ponte Vecchio and from there you are right in the middle of all the amazing sites Florence has to offer. Also if you are worried about safety, I felt it to be a safe neighbourhood even walking home late at night (but, obviously, always exercise caution) and if you would prefer a taxi wouldn't cost much. The other thing I liked was the size of the apartment, and the amenities supplied. Both the living room and bedroom are large, I travelled alone, but if you had a family, I think this would be more than adequate for your needs (1 large real double bed in the bedroom, double sofa bed in the living room). What I really appreciated was that the hosts (Astrid and Leila) supplied the apartment with various food items, they had a platter of various pastries and jams for breakfast, juice in the fridge and essentials like salt, pepper, sugar, tea, coffee and even a box of risotto. I didn't use any of them since I chose to eat out, but great if you are planning to self cater there is a Carrefour Express supermarket on the same road just a few minutes away where you can stock up on all your groceries. If you do book this apartment you will probably deal with Leila who is related to Astrid and she was a superb host. She met me at the apartment and clearly explained everything to me, beyond helpful. I highly recommend this apartment.
