My husband and I were visiting Florence for the first time and were so thrilled about this apartment. It was so comfortable and cozy and clean. The bed was comfy, the outdoor balcony was lovely and it was in a fantastic location. Anna, who checked us in, spent time going over maps of the area which had specific restaurants, shops and sightseeing spots that were highly recommended. There were several conveniences including a grocery store nearby as well as a washing machine! This apartment is in a real neighborhood (Santo Spirito) and away from the crowded tourist area, but in walking distance from everything! And a few blocks away is the Piazza Santo Spirito which is lined with great restaurants/cafes and the Santo Spirito Church.
