Centrally located and walking distance from the train station. the area was very close to Santo Spirito which is away from the tourist routes - a square of locally frequented restaurants. Our host, Michele was wonderful - meeting us at the apartment and showing us around the neighbourhood too. Michele is also a tour guide and we had a fabulous 3 h tour of Florence with him which was interesting, humorous and informative.
I'd definitely recommend this apartment to my friends.
