Straightforward walk (with suitcases) of about 15 minutes from the railway station.
The apartment is in a very central location with all main tourist and shopping attractions just minutes away.
It is on the 2nd floor with two sets of stairs but nothing difficult. The host lives in the building so checkin process is prompt.
The apartment is spacious with corridor from which the bedrooms, kitchen etc lead off. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms which worked well. There isn't air conditioning in the living room or kitchen. In the living room there is a standing fan. The wi-fi worked fine on a number of devices for the usual Netflix streaming.
There is a local supermarket literally round the corner which has a small deli and the usual groceries. There also a number of other local Coop, Conad supermarkets in the vicinity. There is large Coop (Via Cimabue) which is just outside central Florence and takes a 25 minute walk but has much wider selection of groceries and large deli and fresh meat/fish counter.
