The location of Gabriel's apartment can't be beat. It is in the heart of things in Florence, about 2 blocks from Ponte Vecchio. The apartment is very spacious and with great natural light. It is very comfortable and has everything that one might need for a short stay. It is on the 4th floor, and there is an elevator. Highly recommendable! A suggestion, for light sleepers (like me), ear plugs might be a good idea, as there is a bar down in the inner courtyard, and noise can be heard at night -though not until too late-. Water for the shower is sometimes cool and takes quite a while to warm up, but it does work. All in all, a great apartment for a wonderful stay in Florence! We would certainly stay there again.
