The apartment was a good location, close to the train, and on the outside of all the tourist swarms, but close enough to walk anywhere in Florence. The apartment is on the 2nd floor of a narrow staircase so getting luggage up is a bit of a challenge if you have a big bag. Its a bit noisy with street noise and hallway noise. at times people in the hallway sounded like they were talking inside of the room. The apartment is very cold and no matter what the heater was set to it would turn off once it got to 20C, which is 68F and that was measured by the top of the room, which had tall ceilings. It was probably 60° and the bathroom was even colder. The hot water doesn't last for any more than 5 minutes, so after my first ice cold shower we resorted to turning the water on only to get wet then rinse the soap off. Not ideal. Also a bit disappointing to find out that the "paid washer" is actually a free washer that Olfrid asks for 5euro to use.
overall with the fees it ended up being more expensive than the hotels in the area so it was far from a good experience.
