The contact, Giacomo, was very responsive. The apartment is half a block from Piazza Santa Croce, a lovely calm piazza full of local charm with few tourists, and just a short 2 block walk from the Arno, at the point that an elevated sidewalk, free of traffic, starts up and courses along the Arno to a river-side park. Lovely evening views. Good restaurants and other amenities are close by. A fabulous location. Very accommodating hosts.The contact, Giacomo, was very responsive.
