The location of this apartment is ideal. It is comfortable walking distance from the train station, the duomo, the David, Ponte Vecchio, Palazzo Vecchio, and numerous markets. The apartment is clean, with a modern bathroom and modern appliances in the kitchen. The beds were comfortable for us picky Americans. If you rent this thinking you are getting the equivalent of a Hilton, you'll be disappointed, but we were very happy staying here even though we frequently stay in Hiltons. Florence would be ruined by tearing down all of these old buildings and replacing them with a Hilton. You'll have a much better experience staying here.
