Could not have been happier with staying in Walter's wonderful apartment on Borgo Tegolaio. It's an eccentric, eclectic set of rooms in a very old (for us Californians) building. My friend traveling with me is 6 foot 6, and had to duck for the bathroom and a couple other spots, but otherwise the place was perfect, and we loved it.
The Santo Spirito area is very lively & hip, and easy walking to Ponte Vecchio, Centro, and all the Oltr'Arno. We especially enjoyed being close to Casalinga, Gusta Pizza, and the Volume bar.
Walter was a great host, and spent quite a generous amount of time with us talking about the apartment, the area, where to eat and what to see. We found we were very much on the same page with him about what to do & what to avoid.
The apartment was clean, had everything we needed, only one flight of stairs up, felt very safe. I'd say the description is very accurate.
I'm 58, and would love to come here again with my wife.
Thanks, Walter! Grazie mille.
P. S. pretty sure a Tegolaio is a craftsman making roof tiles
