We simply cannot speak highly enough of this apartment in beautiful Santa Maria Novella. Don't be put off by the lack of a lift on the 4th floor, you'll get a great workout multiple times a day and get a great view of the Piazza where you can also see the il Duomo from the master bedroom and the living room. This lovely and quaint apartment has all the small touches that make it a home. We absolutely adored Florence and this apartment had a lot to do with how we felt about the city. The location is simply superb, surrounded by delicious restaurants (go through the back streets where the food is more authentic), the vino flows freely and the people are friendly. The city of Donatello, Michaelangelo and Botticelli, Florence is a city to be devoured for it's art, it's culture and it's cuisine and this apartment will only add to your experience. Grazie Gaia for your beautiful home, grazie mille.
