The apartment has very recently been redone and is in excellent condition. The furniture are as good as new and everything is squeaky clean. We liked the location because it is in lively Santo Spirito which is a little more down to earth than the other side of the Arno, but still in walking distance of all the sights. Lots of small shops and bars around and busy until late at night. The host Mattia is always super friendly, easy to reach and response time is amazing. The apartment is on the first floor of an historic building in a narrow alley, so don't expect a view over the roofs of Florence. As is the case in some parts of Florence, it can be advisable to close the plugs in the sinks and shower after use to avoid odours coming in. We spent around 3 weeks in Mattia's place and found it works well also for extended periods.
