This was a nice place outside of downtown Florence. The T2 tram is right across the street. Tram takes you to SMN train station. From this apt you could also walk to SMN station. It is a very easy mile walk and you literally just follow the tram tracks. There are several grocery stores nearby. One tram stop opposite direction of downtown (toward Airport) is the University stop, totally walk-able, and has a huge Coop grocery store and a little mall with some places to eat and shop. There is an H&M if you need something you forgot. There are lots of places to eat. By far Pizzeria Trattoria San Jacopino was our favorite. The apt is small, but we knew that from the photos, and there were only 2 of us. It does have a washer in the bathroom which is nice. The only negative comment is the couch/pullout bed in living area is not comfortable. For a few day stay it would be OK, however we stayed for 3 weeks and found it uncomfortable to have nowhere to relax after the end of the day. The location though is great with close access to tram and downtown, you don't have to worry about a car or taxi.
