Our stay at this apartment was as cosy as it looked in the photos (perfect for a couple) and Elena was a fantastic host throughout our stay. She was in a rush to another appointment when she handed over the keys, but she took the trouble to return about an hour later to run us through a thoughtfully comprehensive guide to Florence, with her own list of recommended places to see and eat and annotated city map! This was an awesome bonus for us as we got to explore the city through a local's point of view. Thank you Elena!
The apartment also turned out exactly as seen in the photos and amenities as specified on the listing. Everything was in good working order and the apartment clean and tidy when we first arrived. The bed was super comfortable and towels were provided. As the apartment is situated on a busy street, it could get a tad too noisy sometimes but if you are going to be out and about all day like we were, you'd be exhausted by your bedtime and fall asleep just fine.
Location-wise, it was easy for us to find the apartment from the main S.M.N train station, only a 10-minute walk. It was convenient to get to key places like the Duomo, Il Centrale Mercato and Arno river (where Ponte Vecchio is) is just a stone's throw away.
My partner and I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the amazing city of Florence!
