The location is perfect - steps from Santa Croce, the river, the Duomo, all the great panini shops, a great gelato place next door. Salvatore is a terrific host and this building has been in his family for several generations - it shows - he loves every nook and cranny and it shows. If there is any downside to the location, it is that Neri intersects with Benci, which is a very busy road, so the road noise can be a little loud, and as with every street in Florence, there is a lot of nightlife. We enjoyed a month in the apartment and having the space was great too. The water pressure and hot water was great. Each room had AC if you needed it. And I saw in one review that there were mosquitos - we saw none for the month. Enjoy!
