We had the most wonderful stay in Margherita's apartment.
It is in an optimal location - very close to the bridge and so close to all the attractions that Florence has to offer, yet on a quiet enough street that it felt like an escape from what can sometimes be an overwhelming number of tourists.
The apartment itself is a beautiful and spacious set of high ceiling rooms with real character. The bedroom has a very comfortable double bed (I think it is queen size), dressing table, desk, tv, window and air conditioning (the latter of which was very effective in drying out the room when the atmosphere was a bit moist). The bathroom is big and has a good shower. The apartment was a good balance of clean and homely, and had numerous books about Renaissance art, which we found particularly interesting. It was, on the whole, nicer than shown in the pictures in the advert. I think it represents very good value for money relative to other properties in Florence.
Margherita was a fantastic host. She was very good at being in contact before and during our stay and very generous with her time upon check in - ensuring we were well settled in, knew everything about the apartment and surrounding area, and even printing us a map of Florence.
Nearby, there is a very good cafe for breakfast (High Bar - also does drinks in the evening I think); a good pizzeria & restaurant, and a couple of other bars which do good aperitivi and cocktails. Nearby are a number of good other places to eat & drink in the evening (La Beppa Fioria; Il Rifrulo, to name but two); and other highlights on the Ultrano are the places around Santo Spirito, which is not far away.
We would definitely stay here again on a future trip to Florence, and strongly recommend it to others.
