This apartment is a very easy walk from the SMN train station, and is located close to the Santa Maria Novella church. There is a big piazza (with benches) in front of the church, and musicians played there nightly. With a gelato shop right next to it, this was a great spot to relax after a busy day and enjoy the music, so close to the apartment. The apartment is on the top floor of the building with no elevator, but if you are comfortable with walking to the attractions in Florence, as we did, you probably won't have a problem with the stairs. David met us for the check-in, and he gave us a great introduction to the apartment and provided us with recommendations for restaurants, etc. The apartment is spacious and clean. We did not use the kitchen much at all, as we preferred to eat all the amazing food Florence has to offer. We had a slight problem with the satellite tv, and both David and Ilaria responded immediately and resolved the problem. We really appreciated the towels and extra pillows available. The upstairs loft is absolutely charming and has fantastic air conditioning, which is very much appreciated after a hot July day! We walked to all the major points of interest, including the Pitti Palace. There are cool antique and vintage clothing stores about a block away from the apartment. We were happy with the location and the ameneties in this apartment, and recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind stairs and wants a comfortable, air-conditioned place very convenient to the train station. Thanks, Ilaria and David for a wonderful stay in Firenze!
