We loved the apartment! It was very clean, spacious and well decorated. We arrived in Florence well before check in, and we were met, and graciously allowed to stow our luggage while the apartment was being cleaned. The neighborhood is perfect. The apartment sits amid many upscale stores and just 1/2 a block from the famous and historic Ponte Vecchio bridge. There was also a great grocery store very close by and all of the very famous sights are just a quick walk away. Also very close to many delicious restaurants. The host very thoughtfully provided us with fresh fruit, wine and cookies!
