My sister and I stayed here for 4 nights. This roomy apartment is beautifully furnished and comfortable. The upstairs bedroom has its own bathroom and living area on a mezzanine and is very quiet as it is at the back of the apartment. The second bedroom next to the living room overlooks the street, and for a light sleeper occasional noise may be a problem. There are approx 100 steps up to the apartment as it is the "penthouse". The kitchen is very well equipped, with a stovetop so you can cook your own meals. The apartment is less than 10 minutes walk from the main station, and also very convenient for walking to Duomo, Ponte Vecchio etc. There are many restaurants and mini marts in an easy walk. Emilia is a wonderful and welcoming host, contacting us several times ahead of the trip, immediately responsive on any issues, and warm and friendly. She has limited English but we managed well, especially using Google Translate! We would definitely stay here any other time we visit Florence.
