This apartment is perfectly situated to explore Florence. It is about 25 mins walk from the centre so is away from all the crowds. However, there are several bus stops locally allowing one to get across the city cheaply and easily.
The apartment is perfect - comfortable furnishings and containing everything one needs. Barbara was the perfect host - meeting us at the agreed time and with her husband, giving us plenty of tips for exploring Florence and recommending local restaurants.
I thoroughly recommend this apartment if you are visiting Florence.
