This is a pretty large apartment with lots of space for a couple. My wife and I were looking for an apartment in Florence with a view, and this did not disappoint. We loved sitting on the terrace and just looking out at the city. You can take in the sites, sounds, and smells of Florence, and enjoy the experience. We walked from the train station, which was about 5 minutes from the apartment. There were approximately 4-5 flights of stairs to get to the apartment, which was cumbersome only for check-in and check-out because of luggage. Aside from that, the steps are well worth the apartment. There's a nice sized kitchen and modern fixtures in the bathroom. The doorway itself going into the bathroom is a little short, and I bumped my head several times (('m over 6 feet tall), but my wife was fine. I appreciated that there was an iron and ironing board, along with a kettle for us to make warm water or tea. The living area was nice because you could sit on the couch with the curtains open and have a great panoramic view of Florence while watching some Italian TV. It's also a nice place to read a book. There are many shops, restaurants, and convenience stores on the same street as the apartment, so you have easy access to anything you need. Also, as other reviewers mentioned, there is a discotheque (Space Club) directly across the street. It was not loud at all, but I appreciated it because it provided an easy landmark and address to get back to the apartment using Google maps. We could reach most of the tourists locations in about 15 minutes walking. Monika was at the apartment to greet us and had great communication throughout our stay. I'd recommend this apartment would stay here again if I were to visit Florence in the future.
