We went here with a family of four, including two teens. The apartment is located on a relatively quiet street just a few blocks from Accademia and the Central Market, and about 15 minutes from the train station on foot. It is a +20-minute jaunt to get to the river if you are heading to the Uffizi neighborhood. We walked to everything, even across the river, but you'll want to plan your day so you aren't commuting back and forth. The apartment is clean and well-appointed, and is situated in a tiny courtyard near lots of local neighbors (which we appreciated). No view, even from the roof, but you'll feel like a local. There are lots of steps inside, something to consider if you are mobility impaired. At the entrance, a narrow staircase of about 10 steps goes straight up to the kitchen and living room. Another set of narrow steps takes you to the second bedroom and roof terrace. (The master bedroom is on the ground floor.) The middle and top floors have air conditioning, and the kitchen has a washer and dishwasher. Windows are screened to keep out Florence's notorious mosquitos. Overall, a good home base unless you really want to be close to the river. The host was super responsive and proactive. We would stay here again.
