I cannot say enough good things about our stay at the Rose Apartment. Simone was an absolute joy to work with, very responsive and thorough in her communications. The apartment was the perfect fit for our party of 3, and has been beautifully restored, as shown in the photos. It was spotlessly cleaned, and had all the amenities we needed. In addition, Simone has curated a wonderful "welcome" book with outstanding restaurant recommendations and helpful information for your stay in Florence. On top of all of the wonderful things about the apartment itself is its location - just a few blocks from the vibrant Piazza Santo Spirito, where we enjoyed several great meals, bottles of wine and afternoon spritzes. All the main sights of Florence (Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, etc) are about a 10-minute walk, but the Santo Spirito neighborhood has a less touristy, more laid back vibe, which we really enjoyed. One practical note - there isn't an elevator, but the 2 flights of stairs were manageable, and honestly we probably needed it to help work off all the amazing food we had during our trip. Would highly recommend this listing to anyone visiting Florence.
