What a great location. It's an easily walk to all of the important sites in Florence. At the same time, it's in the wonderful Oltrarno - a vibrate (less touristy) neighborhood with shops, restaurants, as well as its own historical sites.
The apartment is very thoughtfully decorated, including original artwork. Note that there are flights of stairs to reach the apartment (I didn't find this to be an issue, but mention it for those that may have a difficult time with stairs).
Alessandra was prompt and extremely helpful - helping with transportation options, providing a map, and offering suggestions on what to see, where to eat, and more.
