Stefano’s place is great. We communicated with him prior to arriving, but you’ll meet Armando, the building manager, for check in. Armando is very nice and thorough when showing the apartment. The space was lovely and quiet, and has plates and cups available along with a stove, fridge, microwave, and coffee which was a sweet touch. There’s a washing machine which we found super helpful after staying in hotels. Honestly, the location was the best part about this apartment. We were a 10 - 15 minute walk to the Duomo, less than 10 from the Ponte Vecchio. We also started exploring the southern side of the river that the apartment is on and found great bars and restaurants - and since this area isn’t touristy, you can get a break from the crowds and feel more local.
I should mention that the bedroom is upstairs, which really isn’t a problem, but if you have any mobility issues or use the bathroom during the night, this is just something to consider.
All in all we loved the space and would recommend it to an individual or couple!
