20-25 minute walk from the city center. There are a few nice restaurants and a laundromat nearby. The Boboli Gardens are very close and nice too.
Inside the apartment, the air conditioning only cools the bedroom so take note if you plan to use the sofa bed in the warm summer months. The bed in the bedroom was comfortable and the sofa bed was adequate.
The hot water was spotty in the shower, going from scalding hot to ice cold every 1-2 minutes unfortunately.
