This apartment has so much character with beautiful old wood beams, lots of bookshelves and the best little reading nook built into the wall. It is very spacious with a well equipped kitchen and a nice new bathroom. Isabella met us there and was so helpful on our arrival. Peter and Cathy have left a great notebook with lots of information about the apartment, the neighborhood, the rest of Florence and even the surrounding area. We spent our last evening doing a cooking class in nearby Certaldo an easy train ride away and it was fantastic! The only challenge for us was the noise. If you are a night owl this is in a perfect location because there is so much happening around the corner at piazza santo spirito but if you are not it can be rather noisy until late. It just depends on what you like!
