The apartment is in a great location, close to a convenience store and historic bridge landmarks, and a short walk to the duomo and main shopping streets. It’s brand new on the inside whilst maintain its historic look on the outside, exactly how you would like it to be!
Things to note would be that there is no elevator in the building as it’s in a protected historic zone, and there are more than 50 steps from the street to the front door of the apartment, which can be a challenge with large/heavy bags or for people who have accessibility needs.
We also found that basic amenities were missing such as kitchen cleaning sponge, washing powder/liquid for clothes, shampoo/body wash. We also found that the shower had some issues draining properly and was very slippery when you are standing and can cause a fall if not careful. Basic issues that the host can fix easily (and likely already has), the apartment itself was a great base for us in Florence, would definitely stay here again with the above issues addressed.
