Beautiful apartment at a great location in the heart of Firenze. Some pieces of furniture are very old and are amazing. There is an old table in the living room which has an wonderful patina.
Location is everything. Once you get your bearings, you are within a 15 min walk of all the beautiful sites that Firenze has to offer. There are great little restaurants a couple doors down from the apartment and it's easy to find a cappuccino or some gelato close by.
Check-in was smooth concidering my friends arrived a few hours earlier and were able to check-in without me.
If there were any little nagging things, it would be the sofa bed in the "third" bedroom has a mattress which is very hard to sleep on. My friend figured out that she could use a mattress from one of the convertible chairs in the living room as a second mattress and it was then fine. Second, the bath off of the master bedroom, which is beautiful and has a wonderful old bathtub, but at the time of my stay it was not the easiest to take a shower in due to how the hand held shower is situated. From what I understand, the tub was recently installed and the next project is to move the shower head plumbing to a better location. But like I said, these are just little things.
Overall I was very happy with my stay and would recommend Carla's apartment to anyone who is looking for a base to explore Firenze from.
