The apartment was wonderful! Very clean and an amazing location. Appreciated the A/C, as it was unseasonably hot when we visited. Quite a few stairs to climb but worth it to have some place quiet and very clean with very comfortable beds to stay. The apartment was also stocked with a variety of coffees.

Location is great - you are within easy walking distance of all of historic Florence. Only the Piazzale Michelangelo is a bit of a hike but it is not too difficult. And the area near the apartment has several great restaurants (especially those right around the corner in the Plaza Santo Spirito.)

If you are driving, note that the apartment is within the ZTL, and you can't park anywhere near it. There are some private parking garages within a block or two, so contact them well in advance for their rates and so they can explain the special permit process that will allow you to drive in the ZTL without a hefty fine. You can hire a taxi from the train station or other public lots outside the ZTL, and some buses run within a few blocks of the apartment as well. We parked in the closest public lot: it runs parallel to the Viale Francesco Petrarca and it is cheaper than the private garages but still a significant walk with luggage from the apartment.
