This apartment is charming and characteristic. It has the feel of a true Italian home with all the conveniences of modern living. Giulio and his assistant were great. Although we never met him, Giulio was quick to answer our questions during our extended stay.
Florence was experiencing very warm weather while we were there yet the apartment stayed cool and comfortable— thanks to the efficient air conditioning system. The shower water always had ample hot water, too. The terrace was a lovely addition with rooftop and sky views.
Although none of the other reviews mention it, the street just outside the entrance to the apartment is extremely crowded from about 10 AM till late in the evening/early morning hours. At times the crowd can be quite noisy. If you are a light sleeper we suggest using a white noise app and or earplugs. There are ways to get around the crowd/noise factor so don’t let this deter you from staying in this sweet apartment as it truly is a perfect location from which to explore the city by foot.
