We LOVED staying here! The host was wonderful- we even called her when we got stuck in La Spezia on a day trip because of a train strike and she tried to help us get back. The apartment is very close to everything- 20 minute walk to the train station, 10 minutes to the Duomo, 15 minutes to both the Accadamia and the Uffuzi. The apartment was comfortable, clean, spacious and so charming. The windows, the balconies and the views were incredible-waking up and looking over the rooftops of Florence was amazing. There are quite a few restaurants right downstairs as well- so if you didn't feel like walking far after long day of sight seeing, you could grab dinner there, or at the Conad grocery store a few blocks away and have dinner on the terrace. Perfect trip.
