Far better then any hotel suite ... it is the luxury to sit on the appartment's balcony overlooking the piazza, the spacious rooms to hang around reading a book in one taking a nap in the other..and an excellent bed. Donatella was very accomodating. We felt that the windows did their work and filtered the lifelyness of the piazza. We had rainy days but that was no problem given central location you watch and feel florence just looking outside or hopping over to uffizy on the other side of the plaza. We definatly come back
