We really enjoyed staying here! The location is perfect, 5-10 minute walk to the main train station and bus station (where you can catch a shuttle bus to the air port in 25mins for €6). To walk into the centre, where you will find the Duomo, it takes just 15 mins, past charming cafes and boutique shops. The Carrefour supermarket is a 5 minute walk, plus there's a pharmacy 3 minutes down the road.
The interior is cool and practical- lots of thoughtful details (umbrellas, hair dryer & straighteners). Everything was clean and very well kept. Michel was waiting for us when we arrived and showed us around the flat. The wifi works perfectly and the small but neat kitchen is well equipped for any cooking. The stairs up to the bedroom are steep, if you're not particularly agile!
This is the perfect base to explore Florence, great location and really lovely inside.
We would definitely stay here again.
