Max and Laura’s apartment is fantastic. Enormous, and very well-appointed. If you take a left out of the door, about a 15-minute walk will get you to the Duomo, Piazzas della Republica and Signoria. (The Accademia is even closer.) To the right, within just a couple of minutes, are quieter cafes, restaurants and bakeries. It was very nice to be able to escape the crowds. Just down the street is a taxi stand should you need one. Max and Simon were very communìcative and helpful. If you are a big group, this is the perfect place.
