The apartment is ideally located close to the Ponte Vecchio and other attractions. You do feel as though you’re part of the community, yet so close to the tourist area of Florence. The apartment is well equipped and our host was so easy to get in touch with if needed. Understandably, as the apartment is on the third floor it did challenge our fitness at times, particularly after a day of viewing the sights of this beautiful city and all it has to offer.
