After climbing a few flights of stairs you enter into a wonderful apartment with a small balcony with views of other Tuscan apartments. Extremely quiet apartment building! You really feel that you are apart of the Italian Florence.
The apartment itself contains several rooms that allow your group of people to have individual spaces. Air conditioning was awesome easily cooling the whole apartment quickly.
The location is the best with only a few minutes to the Centrale Market (very fresh inexpensive ingredients for making meals at the apartment) and a small grocery store around the corner that is packed with great variety of food (also fresh ingredients). Ten to fifteen minutes to the Duomo and 20 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio Bridge and Uffizi. Five minutes to the Academia and David. We could easily walked to the train station in 10 minutes to pick up trains and buses to other smaller villages and cities around Florence.
Great restaurants surround the apartment. Friends tried the La Zaza (one block away) and loved it, so they went twice! We went for pasta at the Yellow Bar and I’Mangarino. Both were located about 15 minutes walk and both were out of this world!
Getting to Virginia’s apartment from the airport was extremely simple. We took Tram #1 to UNITA tram stop and took us 10 minutes walking with our large luggage. No problems. Simple.
The beds are comfortable and clean. The shower and bathroom was large and open. Lovely.
A wonderful experience. Thank you Virginia!!!!
