We spent a week at Bianca's place in October and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location is very convenient; about a 10 minute walk to the train station, 3 minutes to the Duomo, 5 minutes to the Accademia and 8 minutes to the Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. There were numerous restaurants, bakeries, gelato places and small grocery stores nearby. The main outdoor market is only about 4 minutes away. The apartment is in the middle of a building, so it tends to be quiet most of the time. The kitchen has everything you need to cook simple meals, and the washing machine works well. The bed was reasonably comfortable. Air conditioning worked well. Water pressure and temperature in the shower were consistent. Bianca's daughter-in-law/property manager Paola communicates well and left very clear instructions. We would stay there again.
