Our second long stay in Giotto apartment in Florence was great; apartment was roomy enough for family and visiting friends. We also had Terrazza for most of our stay and we were able to use the wonderful terrace into November.
Perfect central location: lots of close restaurants and attractions; only a 10-minute walk to the Uffizi; close bus stops; city Conad grocery a half block away, bigger Conad 10 mins. Easy access to Bardini garden across the Arno and 30-minute walk to Piazzale Michelangelo for city views. Gelateria dei Neri next door, but right around the corner from our favorite Gelateria la Carraia in Santa Croce.
The busyness of dei Neri does mean that you will have some street noise in the large bedroom in Giotto and the bedrooms in Terrazza, especially on weekends.
Salvatore worked hard to make our stay great and is very available. The house was built in the late 1400s, and is a beautiful space. Clean space, good beds. Very good place for a Florence stay!
