Great location. Quiet. We cooked some in the mornings. Good facilities. Washer!! Big plus as the last stay in a hotel with expensive laundry service. I experienced no cell service in the apartment unless I was close to the front window. I didn't care as I'm on vacation. There is good high speed internet anyway. It's a very modest apartment. Small and cozy. One flight of stairs to climb. I left the windows open one night of our summer stay. Big mistake. Mosquitos. Of course because you are so close to the Arno river. I would rent here again but for at least a week or more. 3 days not enough to see Florence.
