Nestled in a quite street near the heart of old town Florence, this was undoubtedly our favorite place to stay on our tour of Italy. While you may have some trepidation at first climbing up the dimly lit stairs to this apartment, once you open the door, all of your doubts will be washed away.
The apartment is quite large and boasts many amenities, including a washing machine (which was key for us being on a longer trip). For sightseeing, the location can’t be beat being within a ten minute walk of the Uffizi and Academia galleries, the Arno river, and Il Duomo to just name a few. Needless to say we never had to taxi/bus anywhere other than to and from the train station (and that was mostly because of our luggage).
Last, but not least, our host Michel was exceptionally accommodating and friendly answering any questions we had in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this apartment for anyone staying in Florence. We would book again in a heartbeat!
