The apartment is brilliantly situated in the heart of the historic old town, a stone’s throw from the Uffizi. As a result it makes the perfect base for site seeing and has a good range of restaurants nearby. The apartment has no TV, but on the plus side it does have a good internet connection and WiFi. Some French toast and jams were thoughtfully provided which helped with breakfast on our first day. As tea drinkers we were delighted to find that there was a kettle.
On the down side it can be a little noisy in the early hours of the morning when bars shut. There is only one bathroom/w.c and the apartment is at the top of the building so there are several flights of stairs to climb to reach it. We visited in early May, a time of year when there are plenty of mosquitos in Florence. One of our party was quite badly bitten on the first night of our stay. Once we realised we bought some spray and some plug in insecticide units, and kept windows shut, which immediately sorted out the problem and we had no further issues with the little pests.
