THE perfect location, if you are interested in the Uffizi, the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, Piazza Santa Croce, the Ponte Vecchio, Gucci Garden, Rivoire, the fancy shops and the outdoor markets - everything is just steps from your door immediately behind Palazzo Vecchio. It can be a tad noisy at night, but that’s Firenze - and being right in the thick of it. The apartment is very spacious, with very tall ceilings and a huge, updated bathroom and very good shower. We cooked in one night and had everything we needed in the kitchen and dining room. The building entryway has an odor that worried us when we walked in, but there is no trace in the apartment. It was a great spot! Highly recommend.
