We have decided this is one of the very nicest places we've ever stayed! It's in a slightly quieter part of Florence, but still just a few minutes walk from the Uffizi and close to a good supermarket and very good restaurants and bars -- higher quality and better value than most on the other side of the river. The apartment was clean and comfortable. Marina welcomed us very nicely on the first night. But most amazing of all is the view from the balcony. It has to be one of the best possible views in the whole city. If you've ever seen the film 'A Room with a View', well, THIS IS THAT VIEW. We had an excellent four night stay.
