Francesca is a welcoming host who gave us all the best tips on eating and moving around the city.
Room- exceptionally clean, well furnished with large windows for plenty of light. The all important air conditioning worked very well, which is quite necessary in the summer heat. Modest kitchen set up for simple dishes, with a fridge. The bed was very comfortable, one of the best sleep we got on our entire trip. Plenty of pillow options for the pillow-picky. Doors have big heavy bolts so you will feel very secure here. Relatively quiet street for such a central location, so we slept undisturbed.
Location- Very central, within 5 minutes walk to most of the tourist attractions like the uffizi, palazzo vecchio, duomo, ponte vecchio. Lots of great food close by too! There is a conveniently located cafe and bar (la boite) around the corner for a morning fix/evening drink. Be sure to try out Cento Poveri on the ground floor of the apartment too, excellent lunch specials!
