What an incredible apartment. It was a spectacular old palazzo with original architectural details. Elly met us at check in and gave us an introduction to the features of our apartment. The kitchen was large and fully appointed so that a guest may cook. The terrace is nice, with shade, and opens to the sky. The bathroom was lovely with a rain shower, and it has a washer which we used along with a drying rack to catch up on clothing from our trip. Just out the door are a beautiful square, many restaurants, and a large number of stores. We were a short walk to the Pitti Palace, Bobboli Gardens, the Ponte Vecchio, and the Uffizi Gallary. We had a marvelous time and were very comfortable.
