This is a GEM of a place! We traveled by car, so the private on-site parking was a BONUS! Easy to find, as well. When on the street, slow down until you find the door to the address - pull over as much as you can, throw on your hazard lights, and call the host (if you don't see them immediately). They will open the gate entrance and you pull on in, drive down, park your car and say goodbye to it until you leave. Can't get any easier, more secure and private than that!
There are lifts to the flat - so easy if you're traveling with a bunch of luggage, have little ones, or have mobility issues... this apartment is very accessible. It is beautiful inside - wonderful finishes and decor! We felt right at home! We only stayed 2 nights, so didn't use the kitchen - I couldn't quite figure out the coffee pot situation (looked like a Bialetti-style pot) because there was no way to open it for the separate water compartment, but we were fine without. The dumpster is outside the building just a few meters so taking out the trash was a breeze. Towels and linens were provided; extra cozy blankets were available in the wardrobes, as well. Full size shower products, too!
This location is perfect for exploring the central area of Florence. Just a few minutes walk (15-20) to the center for seeing the sights and sipping the sips. I can't say enough good things about this stay! Free on-site parking, easy access to the safe and secure building, close to the city center, and beautiful apartment... the perfect Florence stay!
