We had a wonderful experiences in Giancarlo's place with my family. I love the neighborhood very much. It was very close to ponte vecchio (10 min) with walk. But you should know that in Florence everywhere is just perfect. So this neighborhood too! There are nice historical buildings, restaurants, aperetivo places and nice bars just 300-400 Meters from the apartment. And Giancarlo is also very friendly and helpful; he helped us for free park, gave nice introduction about Florence. Apartment was comfortable with everything you needed. Don't miss this apartment!
