We LOVED this apartment. The location can't be beat. It's right over the Arno river and located about 2 blocks away from a major overpass so you can easily access restaurants, sites, tours, etc. on either side of the river. The view on the patio is worth every cent and more! Sweeping views of the city and the hills of Tuscany and added bonus you can see the Duomo right from the patio. The apartment was spacious and clean when we arrived, the WiFi connection worked perfectly from all parts of the apartment, and the air conditioning made the place nice and cool (perfect for the hot summer months). The bed was the most comfortable one we slept on during our three city tour of Italy as well. Added bonus for Stefano have a GREAT hair dryer available for guests!
A few things to keep in mind when booking this apartment. It is right over a very busy square in Italy, Piazza Santo Spirito. This square has no lack of great places for aperetivos, gelatos, lunch, and dinner. It also was very busy with people until about 3/4AM every night, including weeknights. You could hear some of the noise from outside, but not too terrible especially if you are not a light sleeper. If you are a traveler who wants to hit the hay super early, you might want to consider Also, this apartment is a penthouse apartment and there are quite a few flights of stairs to climb. Definitely not for the out of shape traveler! We exercise regularly and found ourselves winded after the climb each day. This was especially challenging when we first arrived with our luggage (each weighing about 55 lbs). Again, though, worth the view once you get up there!
