We are a family of 4 (2 adult children) on a family vacation. This apartment was wonderful, spacious and clean (2 full bedrooms) with equipped kitchen and comfortable sitting area. The location is perfect, very close to San Spirito and within close walking distance to Ponte Vecchio and the cathedral/museums etc. It was very hot in Florence when we visited and the apartment is not air conditioned however the fans provided comfort for sleeping at night. We kept the windows open so there was some street noise at night, but we weren't too bothered by it. The host was wonderful, met us upon arrival and assisted us with suggestions to make our way around the city and restaurants, etc. She recommended Vivoli Gelato as the best in the city (fantastic!!) , recommended City Market for good local foods, and booked our taxi at check out. We want to recommend Osteria San Spirito (best fresh pasta that we ate!!)and Pizza Gusta (very popular with the locals) both near the apartment. Also ate at Del Fagioli in St Croce section of the city (was excellent!! but make a reservation). Buy a Firenze pass if you want to visit museums and want to avoid waiting in long lines. Overall we had a wonderful tie in Florence and would highly recommend Silvio's apartment!!
