When Emmanuel says in the headline that this is the best view of the dome it is an understatement. I thought it was an exaggeration, but when my husband and I walked out on the balcony and we could almost touch the dome, it was very emotional. It is a studio apartment with everything you need. There is a grocery store/convenient store across the street for all your needs. You are one block from the dome and walking distance to everything else. My husband and I walked to and from the train station with our luggage to Emmanuel’s apartment. For being so close to the dome we thought it may be loud but that was not the case it was very quiet on the balcony in the evenings. I highly recommend this Air BNB for the any of those going to Florence the view is priceless.
