This is a very well located apartment (!!!) and close to all the attractions you would want to see in Florence. It’s actually the same building as the Academia, so Michelangelo’s “David” is practically on the other side of the wall. The decor is charming and bright-white clean. Although the apartment seems to have been recently updated, Francesca did a beautiful job keeping some historic architectural touches while adding modern Anne tutors. (The bathroom and kitchen are very well equipped).
Francesca always communicated promptly, made everything very clear and easy to understand. She helped me get settled very well upon arrival, even after I arrived 30 minutes late due to cell phone issues. Francesca is a great host and I only wish she hosted every place I ever used with AirBnB.
The one drawback is that one window faces a busy street. You could hear cars and buses throughout the evening even with the window closed. We used a fan the second night which helped with some white noise and the car noise was much improved after that.
All and all, I believe this apartment is especially well done, especially for the price. Definitely consider it for your next trip to Florence!!!
