Great apartment in the heart of Florence. Overall would HIGHLY recommend
Positives:
Great location, close to everything: sites, restaurants, grocery market, train station. Clean, well decorated, free of clutter. We were welcomed personally for check in. The host left a welcome basket with snacks and drinks and even a flag from our home country which made us feel welcomed and more at home. Kitchen was modern, clean and well appointed. There was some basic food, oil and spices available for use. Bathroom was spacious and clean, with a nice shower head. Loft was nice with bedside lighting and TV. 2 air conditioners worked well to beat the heat. Modern combined washer and dryer was a bonus. Extra mirrors in space made bathroom sharing easier.
Only negative was it is the top floor of a 5 story building, which made for many stairs, but good exercise to balance all the good food!
