francesco met us at the apartment and was very nice, quick to respond to all communications and a great host. the apartment is cozy, has great light, beautiful view of the hills above oltrarno, and perfectly located, 10 minutes walk from the ponte vecchio. the terrace is a perfect place to have dinner or a glass of wine, and was very sunny. there were nice little shops and places to eat just downstairs. we would stay here again for sure. thanks francesco!
