The apartment is well located for walking to all the sights and museums of Florence. Literally a stone's throw from Santa Croce Basilica. Elia was always quick to respond to any of my queries. Very helpful. The place is quaint and set in an old alley - you feel you are stepping out into history. The kitchen is well equipped and easy for cooking a quick meal or heating food. It has a trattoria on the ground floor but it was quiet due to winter and no open patio. Great cafe and bakery adjacent -try out the sweets. Love the place.
