Folks, you found it - this apartment is in the middle of everything you could want including restaurants, shopping, and culture. In our stay we found that we could walk to basically everything we wanted to see, and even for the longer journeys a bus station is within 5 minutes' walk. The apartment itself was very comfortable - the bed was easy to melt into after a long day of sightseeing, the kitchen was well appointed, and the bathroom and washer were everything needed to stay fresh for the trip. Almost certainly will be returning when we next come to Florence.
