This is a wonderful apartment only a five minute walk to the central plaza with Filippo Brunelleschi's dome (I timed it). Our host was waiting for us outside when we arrived and assisted us with our luggage. He was very welcoming and even had a bottle of champagne and note for us as we were there to celebrate our anniversary. I could text him if needed to communicate. The apartment was roomy, comfortable and very clean. There was an American style coffee maker which was a big plus for me. Coffee and filters were provided. There was also an espresso machine. There is a small market close by to buy milk, wine and food basics. The heating also work well. The bathroom was up to date and clean. There was enough hot water for the two of us to showers with no problem. The apartment was also quiet. We could not hear road traffic noise or the restaurants on the first floor. I would definitely stay here again.
