Michelangelo was a great host, he thought of everything in the apartment. The place is very well located, quiet but central. It’s a 10 minute walk to the Santa Maria Novella train station and 5-8 minute walk at most to the Duomo, another 5-8 minutes get you to palazzo vecchio and there are restaurants everywhere. We strongly recommend a visit to Mercato Centrale and having some lunch there. We also bought fresh biscotti from there to eat every morning with our coffee after waking up to the morning bells of the Duomo! The view and the sight first thing in the morning from the terrace is magical! The smell of fresh bread wafts up.
The apartment is great! The living room is great to chill and the kitchen has all the amenities including a breakfast table when it got too cold on the terrace. Bathroom is a little tight and taps are connected so if you are showering don’t use another tap, otherwise very good. The place is very clean, secure and well equipped. Michelangelo met us when we arrived and he was very detailed in our introduction to everything and very friendly and really helpful. He even has a ton of guidebooks and maps, and mapped out places for us to go to on a map for us. Great experience!!!
