We could not have chosen a better apartment to rent for a week in Firenze. It was right off Santa Croce and convenient to walk all over Florence. There were many restaurants and shops nearby and of course, many more all over Firenze. The apartment was well equipped in an old palazzo. It had a large bedroom and a bathroom down a very small original, concrete, spiral staircase. It was so funky and cool. Upstairs was a large living room, another bathroom and kitchen. It was clean, it was historic, and it was modern, in its own way. Ksenia, who manages the apartments was a delight - so helpful, so knowledgeable, so pleasant. When we come back to Florence we would not even think about staying somewhere else.
