What a spectacular place. The location is seriously unmatched -- no more that 5 minutes to the Duomo, the Piazza Del Vecchio, Ponte Vecchio and the high end shopping districts. Beautifully decorated, super comfortable with all the amenities we need (except -- fair warning, -- the hair dryers are iffy at best due to low Italian electrical currents. Both failed us.) Comfy beds, a well appointed kitchen, AC for those hot Florentine days and nights. The bath for the big bedroom is up several steps which isn't ideal if you have to use it in the middle of the night, but there's another at the other end of the apartment so it wasn't a big deal. Our host was super helpful with restaurant recco's. We took him up on his suggestion to eat at Tamero in the Santa Spirito district and it was fabulous. Italian with a slightly lighter more modern bent in a fun edgy space. We can't wait to spend more time in Firenze and we would definitely come back to this place.
