This is an amazing apartment/house with a fabulous outside siting and eating area. It was always a pleasure to come back 'home' to the peace and quiet of il giardino after the often busy crowds in central Florence. The apartment is well equipped and comfortable - yes some stairs but all worth it.
The surrounding neighborhood is also delightful in the evening with good open air restaurants in Piazza Santo Spirito (Richhi was our favorite). Also, Osteria Della Enoteca is a great indoor restaurant and is almost next door.
