A great apartment more than conveniently located near the historic center and everything you need for a great stay in Florence. The apartment is spacious, clean, and equipped with all of the modern conveniences. A grocery store is just around the corner. Across the street is a bakery with fresh pastries and bread, just get there early. The tobacchi store on the corner is a great resource. The owners are wonderful, friendly, and very helpful. You can buy your bus tickets and morning espresso. By bus, you are no more than 15 minutes from the Santa Maria Novella train station which for those of us from New York City is like being at Penn or Grand Central Station, everything is either in walking distance, you can get a transfer to where you want to go, or get a taxi. I can't say enough and I would definitely stay there again.
