This is a perfect base for those visiting florence for the very first time but also anybody looking to get to know a different side to the city. The oltr'arno has significantly fewer tourists, but Max's apartment is only a few minutes walk from the ponte vecchio and all the major sites. Just next door are the lively piazze Passera and Santo Spirito. The apartment itself is perfect, well furnished, and the welcome was exceptional - punctional, professional and kind (we were left wine and coffee, as well as all the tips!) Highly recommended
