The apartment is located in a great part of Florence. Literally steps to the leather and food markets. It's also easy walking distance to pretty much anything you'd want to see in Florence. It's a perfect size for two people, except the shower is small, as is the case in most European apartments. Bear in mind, it is on the top floor so requires you to climb several flights of stairs to access - as there is no elevator. The kitchen is a great size and being so close to the market, very easy to cook meals at home. Overall we had a good stay.
