Fede was a fantastic host. He was very flexible with my check in as I changed the time on the last day. He met me and carried my suitcase up the 87 stairs. The apartment is older and has many things that have been collected over the years. But the view from the top floor and the two balconies is why you stay here! Very close to the Ponte Veccio and restaurants etc. Unfortunately I fell down the stairs in the apartment while I was there so just be prepared for a few levels inside. Frederico was so helpful though in calling me a taxi and also helping me locate my cooking class teachers. This was a big help as a solo traveller!
