Luca's place on Via Toscanella is a great location to explore Florence! This was our third time in Florence and we always stay South of the Arno, but we have never been this close to the Ponte Vecchio. Even at a five minute walk from the Old Bridge, this place is quiet and secluded, but so close to so much! Just outside the door are three great restaurants and an equally great gelateria. We spent five nights here and it became like home. The flat is very spacious and, since it is high in the building, surprising bright for Florence's narrow streets. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need, per European standards. One thing to be aware of is that this flat is on the 3rd floor (that's 4th floor for my fellow Americans)! That is 63 stairs above the ground, so be sure you can climb that many stairs two or three times a day. Also, I would say this is best for a couple. The glass in the bathroom door is not as private as it was probably intended to be when the flat was remodeled. All-in-all, a great place and a great stay! A truly ideal location for Florence and great hosts who are very attentive and connected!
