Art apartment Santo Spirito Matteo provided my wife and I with the perfect accommodation in the centre of Florence. We were met by the owner David with a very enthusiastic welcome late on the Friday night which was very good of him. Situated close to one of the old market squares we immediately felt part of the the Firenzi buzz. The accommodation was excellent with plenty of room and all the facilities we required for a weekend (including towels). A complimentary bottle of red wine left by David was very welcome and other basic necessities were to be found in the kitchen cupboards. The apartment is well located and within short walks of all the amazing visitor attractions. Pitti Palace is literally less than 5mins walk and we easily walked to the Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi gallery and Duomo which were only a little further. Florence was amazing and a perfect place to celebrate my 50th birthday and the accomodation provided the perfect base to stay in and to explore from. Wifi in the apartment worked perfectly and enabled us to keep in touch through Skype with family life in the uk at no extra cost!! Being situated so close to the centre of old Florence we still can't believe how much we packed in over the weekend! The bakery less than a minute from the apartment was amazing selling fantastic pastries, cakes etc...a must in the morning. Oh and the UCI World Cycling Championships were simply amazing even given the poor GB showing!?
