A brilliant location for exploring Florence. The apartment is located in a side street and is a five minute walk to the Duomo. Pharmacy, supermarket and lots of cafes are located just around the corner. Great contact with Alessandro before the trip; getting the keys was also no problem and it was great that we could use the apartment until late afternoon as our flight left in the evening. The bed was very comfortable too and the kitchen is fully equipped to cook meals (although we didn't do so).

As others have said, there is a smell of damp (the building is extremely old) but with the windows open it's not a problem. In short: great value for money accommodation in an otherwise extremely expensive city.
