We had a really nice time at Stefano's place. It was centrally located to all the sites so we find ourselves going back to the apartment after a couple of hours of strolling around town. The balcony is great for people watching and if you want to just unwind and have a glass of wine, or eat your panini while you people watch. The apartment is just above the restaurants in the piazza so there were ample opportunities to people watch and just enjoy Florence. There were no surprises to us during our stay. This apartment is right on a piazza in Florence so we expected the noise.
The apartment is very clean and we love the 1-1/2 bath. It made it easy for 2 people and very convenient as the 1/2 bath is right next to the sleeping area. It is truly an art gallery suite, so a nice quiet haven to prop your feet up, and enjoy the art collection and the views from the couch.
We ran into a little trouble on our way to the apartment before check-in and Stefano was more than accommodating to wait for us > 2 hours after our planned arrival. We also had the mistake of booking a much earlier flight and Stefano helped us book a taxi at 4am in the morning.
This apartment is a great find, and should we have a chance to go back, we'll definitely consider Stefano's place.
