This apartment is close to the Boboli Gardens and Palazzo Pitti, where outside there are artists selling their wares and sketching/painting while groups of people picnicke. Just a note for guests needing a washer, we happened to come after guests who'd punched the panel in so we used a Wash and Dry, a self-servuce laundromat a quarter of a mile down the street. The apartment has high ceilings giving the kitchen and bedroom a nice, airy feel. We ended up cooking most of our meals, having cozy breakfasts and dinner in. Less than 0.75 miles away are a Carrefour and a Sapori grocery stores for all your cooking needs.
