This apartment is beautiful with its Old World charm, modern amenities, and ideal location making our three month stay in Florence just wonderful. The city center including the Dumo and Uffizi is less than a 15 min. walk. The train station is also the same distance. In the extreme heat of this summer, the apartment was always comfortable with its air conditioning. We also appreciated the elevator since the apartment is on the third floor and having a washer/dryer. Included is a cleaning service every two weeks. It is in the Oltrano area which is home to locals with many artisan shops, osterias, trattorias, grocery store, produce shop. wine shop, etc. and even a barber and hair salon just minutes from the apartment. Our favorite restaurant was a 3 minute walk away-Bracceria All'11 serving a fresh truffle menu, Italian fare, and filet mignon. There is even a pasta making class and also an opera which performs nightly two minutes from the apartment. Truly a gem of an apartment in a great location! Filippo's assistant, Beth was such a pleasure! Any time we had a question she responded cheerfully and very quickly. She went above and beyond making our stay truly memorable!
