An absolutely fantastic location with regard to the (many) sights in Florence. Everything is easily walkable, and you can find less touristy neighborhoods nearby as well. We loved the tastefully-decorated apartment with many nice amenities (including, very thoughtfully, potted flowers on the dining table!). A couple of things to note: Tall guests should be aware that there is a very low wooden beam in the bathroom, which is a hazard especially at night. There is also considerable traffic noise, but this may be higher than usual during our stay since traffic is diverted to the front of the apartment due to work on the nearby street. One practical tip - get the "Apptaxi" app for use in Florence since no other cab hailing apps seem to work there.
