What a wonderful apartment with lovely balconies and comfortable rooms and excellent air conditioning (which was very important on the days we visited)! Stefania and her daughter Nimoe are super hosts and very good communicators! The street is very quiet which is lovely for sleeping and you are quite close to piazza Michelangelo with the best views of Florence. All in all this was a fabulous Airbnb for us!
Given that this is a new listing and we were one of the first to stay there, here are a couple of things that you will want to know:
1) many stairs and no elevator: the apartment is on the top floor which means great views but more than 70 stairs so please plan for that if you have heavy bags or anyone in your group who can’t climb stairs
2) grocery stores are quite far (about 15 minutes walk to a PAM supermarket across the river and 20 minutes to the best grocery down by ponte vecchio)
3) breakfast places are also about 15 minutes away. We highly recommend across the river by ponte gradúa either melaleuca bakery (with excellent bagel sandwiches) or ditta artigianale (with eggs or pancakes with bacon).
4) taxi: we recommend a taxi if you are going by train both to the Airbnb (queue outside train station which can be long) and back (call one of the taxi companies which Nimoe or Stefanía can recommend.
Molto grazie Stefanía and Nimoe!!
