We stayed for three nights, and wish it could have been longer! What a delightful apartment and hosts. Michele and his brother Gabriele were on hand to greet us and show us the apartment when we arrived. We were early, and they graciously allowed us to drop off our luggage before taking a stroll around Florence while they finished preparing the apartment. The location was close to everything - great restaurants, sights, and the train station - while still being quiet and residential. As others have mentioned, the stairs are no joke. I considered it a good workout for all the pasta and gelato I ate, but it wouldn’t be recommended for those with mobility issues. The views speak for themselves and I loved standing out on the terrace listening to the Sunday church bells while hearing bird song. We took Chef Gabri up on his cooking experience and it was GREAT. He taught my 19 year old son how to make fresh pasta and everything he made was delicious. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay there again on a return trip to Florence!
