The apartment is lovely: bright, spacious, nicely furnished. The decor is clean and modern; all the appliances are new and work perfectly. Thoughtful attention to design and detail made it a treat to stay here. Fast, reliable internet. The flat is in a residential neighborhood, away from the crowds, yet within walking distance of the main tourist sites. Lots of nice cafes and bars nearby. I stayed for four weeks on a professional assignment and felt very much at home there. It was one of the best apartments I've ever stayed in during many years of visiting Florence. I really loved this flat! As other guests have mentioned, the flat is on the top floor (no lift), but the staircase is not steep or narrow. I found it quite easy to manage the stairs, and at check-in David's friend Eugenio helped me with my luggage. However, someone with mobility problems may need to consider another venue. The other drawback is some street noise that can be bothersome if you are a light sleeper (like me). But if you're used to living in a big city, it probably would not be an issue. David is an attentive and communicative host who went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable in the flat. All in all, I had a very pleasant experience and would definitely recommend both the apartment and the owner.
