Fantastic view! I highly recommend. It was a small apartment but that just means more time on the balcony. It felt like our own private photo spot. There were occasionally others on the terrace since it is shared but it was never busy and everyone was nice. The location was close to all the sights, markets, and shops, plus walkable to the train and metro for when we were going between cities or traveling to the Cascine Market. My boyfriend and I managed in the space for a few days without problem though the shower is as small as you'd expect. Luca is wonderful also! we had a plumbing problem and it was taken care of by the time we returned from our afternoon sightseeing. If you're coming to Florence, you should definitely stay here.
