We loved our stay in Florence- Tommaso's mom met us at the apartment, and was very sweet and helpful throughout our stay. The apartment has a very central location, and we found it easy (and fast) to navigate to the major tourist sites (the Uffizi, the Accademia, the Ponte Vecchio, etc.). We discovered an amazing Tuscan restaurant just down the street from the apartment- Trattoria La Burrasca (we agreed it was the best meal of our 5-week trip). One thing to note- the upper level of the apartment has a very low ceiling (as it says in the description, about 170 cm), so it could be uncomfortable for anyone much taller than that to move around upstairs. But overall, we had a great time in Florence.
