Amazing location! 10 minute walk to the train/bus station. You have a beautiful palazzo near by where people play music and a crowd gathers to enjoy the night. You are about a 15-20 min walk from the bridge to get to the otheraide of Florence, that area has more sites to see and food as well. I suggest stopping by one of the deli markets for a delicious sandwich.
Alessandro was very accommodating, our plane was delayed by 2 hours but he was very understanding and even helped carry our luggage! The apartment is very cute and spacious, worth the price and visit!
ps: there is an elevator =p
