If you want to see the major sights in Florence, you could not be in a better location. The Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, Piazza Della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio are literally 3 minutes away. And there is easy access to all of the best shopping, the San Lorenzo Market (I prefer Sant’Ambrogio Market, if seriously shopping for food amongst the locals) , Santa Croce, Accademia, and much, much more.
There are many restaurants just outside the door. Indeed, within 25 feet of the front door there are two street bars with panini, a pizzeria, and a sit down restaurant.
The apartment is very comfortable. The pictures are an accurate refelection of the space. The kitchen and living area are spacious and 20+ foot (6+metre) ceiling gives this area and the master bedroom a great feel. The unit is on the second floor but this does mean four good flights of stairs. There is an elevator.
Our interaction was with Luca, Bruno’s son. He was very responsive and pleasant to deal with. He had restaurant and food shopping suggestions. He is on site most days.
Note:
The location is fantastic and we enjoyed it. Being so central does not come without street noise almost 20 hours a day. It did not bother us but if you are a sensitive sleeper, ear plugs would be an idea.
