This apartment is well appointed in a classic perfectly maintained building. However it is the view overlooking the Arno River and over the Pont Vecchio that really captures the imagination. We enjoyed watching the Florence Rowing Club practice below and also taking in the elegant light reflecting off the Palazzo Vecchio clock tower. To say the place is a good location is an understatement. Within 30 seconds you will be promenading with some of our planet’s finest citizens, and on your way to all of the best sights. The apartment is an affluent yet friendly area, as we were routinely greeted and engaged in conversation with locals. Everyone we met spoke perfect English, were all very complimentary, and general made us feel at home in their neighborhood. I can say the same for our host who was very responsive and provided excellent local recommendations. Yes this place is lovely and ideal for an enriching Florentine holiday experience.
