You can not find a better situation than "Florence at Your Feet." The apartment is spacious, sun-filled, extremely comfortable, beautifully furnished, with a well-equipped eat-in kitchen, TWO bathrooms, great beds and even lovely linens. The air conditioning is very effective and the Wi-Fi is strong in every room. There is even an elevator to complement the wide, gracious stone steps in the interior hall of the historic residence.
This is a perfect apt for a family of 4 or 4 friends.
The location is wonderful also - on an old quiet street one block from the Arno, 5 minutes walk from the Ponte Vecchio and from food shopping and restaurants in one direction, and in the other, 5 minutes to the walls of the historic San Niccolo neighborhood which has a number of lovely little mom and pop restaurants with great food, and also a wonderful gelateria.
Giancarlo must be The Best Host in Florence. Everything in the apartment is set up for convenience, he provides a very helpful binder of information on everything from dining to transportation, to how to work the washer-dryer, to take-with-you maps of the neighborhood and Florence in general.
We highly recommend this apartment, this location and Giancarlo as host!
