Wow, wow, wow! We couldn't have been happier with this apartment. Talk about old world charm! As the pictures show, you are right in front of the Santa Croce church. The location couldn't be any more charming.
The balcony is absolutely spectacular! We spent most of the time out there drinking spritzes, watching the people below and being serenaded with opera, sung from the square below. Be forewarned, the square can be loud later at night, but we didn't hear any noise once we closed the doors.
The apartment is also very quaint and charming and has a very old world feel. As soon as you step in you feel like you're stepping back in time to the Renaissance.
We arrived a bit early so had lunch right out side in the Piazza and our host, Ginevre, found us right away. She was extremely helpful as she showed us the apartment. She gave many great recommendations for dinner, breakfast, shopping, etc.
The next time I visit Florence, I would absolutely not hesitate to stay here again. I'd actually be disappointed if I couldn't. I will be recommending this to several friends.
Grazie mille, Genevre! Arrivederci alla prossima.
