The Maison Angeli apartment we stayed in certainly had the wow factor. The apartment sleeps 8 comfortably (if two are kids sharing a double) and the bathroom is lovely, plus a spare loo and shower, and modern functional galley kitchen. The building is superbly situated just off the Piazza Spiritus Santos, a great spot for cafes, bars, restaurants and a little morning market. Here life feels a bit more real, more local, and not crazy busy like over the bridge. Elly gives you all the information you need to explore the local area, eat in the best spots and find your way to all the must see locations in Florence. Her enthusiasm is helpful and spot on. The apartment is ancient, traditional, frescoed, historic and atmospheric. A real slice of Florentine life. It's a privilege to stay there. Accept any quirks as apart of the deal! All necessary modern conveniences temper the traditional aspects and the whole thing works beautifully. There is a sense of quiet so don't stay here if you plan to party. The little terrace is kind of shared so don't expect autonomy. Be prepared to respect others in neighbouring apartments. That said its a space to enjoy, relax and feel a part of local life for a few days.
Good beds. Effective air con. Great wifi and very convenient. I would return if in Florence again. We travelled with two children and the apartment worked well for us. Being your mosquito repellent. There's lots!!
