Overall the apartment was clean and well appointed; the clothes washer was especially useful. Tommaso was very friendly and eager to help. Another bonus was the proximity to the Central Market (across the street) with it's array of fresh fruits, vegetables, and ready to eat food. The apartment is walking distance from the main train station in Florence ( Santa Maria Novella). A word of caution to those over 5'7" - you will have to walk hunched over while upstairs in the loft area (bathroom & bedroom) because the ceiling is about 5'7" high.
