This is a terrific apartment with a terrific host. View is as splendid as the photos show and that makes every minute in the apartment feel special. Nice, comfortable space. Great location Oltrano (other side of the river) puts you right at Ponte Vecchio, Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens, plus its a little less touristy. Lorenzo met us promptly, helped with luggage, and came right over early one morning to help when I'd inadvertently turned off the hot water heater. Climbing 4 flights of stairs after a steep uphill street --this is perhaps best for folks who are young and fit. We are neither, but it was worth it.
