This apartment is in an excellent location. It is just a few steps from the southern end of the Ponte Vecchio and, considering the busy foot traffic in this area, it isn't noisy. It is an old building, as most are when in a central location. The entrance area and the stairwell used to access the apartment have a terrible odor of sewage. You get the same smell if you open the windows in the apartment. The apartment itself is very spacious. Unfortunately, everything has a worn out feel to it and isn't well maintained. There isn't enough lighting in all the rooms, so it feels dark. It seems like it has been just outfitted enough to make it a rental but nothing more to make it comfortable. There was a strong smell of mildew in one of the bedrooms. Considering the price, I would have expected something a little nicer. Overall: great location and spacious but needs maintenance work and updating.
