What a great place!!! This apartment is on the top floor of a lovely old building with Air conditioning AND an elevator! Just be aware, there are still some steps to navigate. It is in the heart of trendy Oltroarno and walking distance to just about every monument and gallery! The train station is only a 20 minute walk as well. That being said, after a long day of sightseeing and touring around Florence all you need do for a great dinner and clubs is to walk downstairs! There is a great lunch place that serves an awesome fresh cut meats board and breads. There is a great dinner restaurant (Nero) right next to the lunch place and an organic restaurant right around the corner There are typical pasta restaurants and bars all around including a little grocer. I cannot say enough about this location. Topping it all off is a wonderful host! Laura made sure we had a nice bottle of wine, coffee, fresh fruits and sweets on our first day. The apartment is adorable! Everything you need for a long (I stayed 3 weeks) or a short stay. There was great water pressure and plenty of hot water for showers, washing machine, air conditioning and the wireless worked ALL OF THE TIME! it was an excellent stay. One I would definitely like to repeat!
