Andrea's "Cozy Pitti Apartment" has rightly earned its many sterling reviews. Come for the parking (EXTREMELY rare in Florence) and stay for a clean, functional, comfortable apartment with a lovely host. My dog Carbón and I had a great stay! Some details: 20 minutes by foot to Ponte Vecchio, 6 minutes to a grocery store, 3 minutes to the Roman gate. A tip if you have a dog or just want to have a more relaxed walk into town with more walking space: go to the Roman gate, enter the car park that runs along the old city wall (directly to your left as you face the centro storico) and walk all along it to the other side. Note about the car park entrance upon arrival: it works fabulously. You simply text Andrea with the provided code and the car park gate opens instantly. Absolutely the easiest check in I've ever had in Florence and I really appreciated that I could see my car from the apartment windows.
