Great location within easy walking distance from the train station, and between the Duomo and the river. Very easy to slip back to the apartment for a quick break in between museums or walking around. Despite other reviews, we found the apartment very quiet except for church bells which are inevitable in the old part of Florence. We did not hear street noise, and wonder if this host has two apartments as others had mentioned this. We were two couples and the bedrooms are separated, as are the bathrooms, which increased privacy. Not a lot of comfortable seating in the apartment but we didn’t spend much time there so not a big issue. Beds were comfortable, although single pillows were thin and a bit lumpy. A bit more toilet tissue would have been nice.
Stefano said he made an error with the check in instructions as we were asked to leave 3 euros each per night for our stay for Florence tourist occupancy tax. We dutifully left 9 Euros each and when I checked my Airbnb bill later, we had already paid occupancy taxes. Stefano has said he will reimburse us. So don’t leave the tourist tax if you book through Airbnb.
All in all a great place to stay!
