This property is in a great location and very central to all landmarks, restaurants and bars. It's on 'Via dei Benci, 12'. We were only 10-20 minutes walking distance to the edge of Florence. Our family had a great time and the apartment was cool during peak temperatures outside of 39' degrees.
There is a lot of character and style within the property, it's bedroom's and living rooms. I'm sure other's will also enjoy this.
There' is ample space in the apartment easily for 8 people. There's washing machine in case you have another trip leaving Florence onto your next destination. There is a large size fridge and freezer so you can cool beverages quickly and a large amount of them at the same time. The lift does work but it's for 1 person at a time.
You are only 20 seconds from food, ice-cream or alcohol in-case of an emergency :)
Some points to note. We stayed during peak tourist time from End of July to Beginning of August, the city is booming, busy and very lively.
Some things that have already been mentioned in previous reviews. We did have issues with the WIFI
There is also a nightclub directly downstairs opposite the apartment, which unfortunately played music until 4am and left their front doors open. We could hear other residents arguing with the venue during the afternoon due to so much noise. Maybe 10-30 people outside smoking, 10 uber drivers on the doorstep to the main entrance and the other bars a few doors downstairs. We had ear plugs but on some nights we actually struggled to sleep until 4am when it stopped. The licence for downstairs clubs was until 4am. We feel this should have been mentioned as it wouldn't be suitable for light sleepers or people sensitive to low frequency noises.
We had a few bites from small insects which appear to be tiny orange ants which are mainly in the toilets but sometimes where in the beds.
