Beautiful apartment in the center of Florence. Great views of Palazzo Vecchio and despite being in the center of the city it was absolutely quiet at night. The finishings and comfort of the apartment are excellent. It’s really luxurious and Fabrizio is a gracious and responsive host. Regarding the stairs - they are two flights but we managed despite having heavy bags and older parents. I think this is a worthy trade off for the the quality and comfort especially for families. Highly recommend.
