This apartment is in a great area of Florence. It's close enough to all tourist sites so you can walk everywhere, but far enough away so you aren't in a loud, congested area. The area itself s great- plenty of markets, restaurants and take out places within a 5 min radius.
The apartment is beautiful. It was great to stay at a place with such lovely grounds but still be in the heart of the city.
The ground floor of the building in the lobby- checkin area. There is a locked gate to the stairs. The 1st floor is the main apartment- which you enter through a lockable door. The loft room is on the 2nd floor, but there is no separate door blocking it. The 1st floor main unit has a really nice kitchen, which was stocked with fruit, juice, milk, coffee and cookies. There is a large dining room table and small couch. Then there is a large bathroom and 2 bedrooms. The apartment has ac that works really good. There is also an elevator to take your bags to your room.
We traveled with a toddler and the hosts provided a pack and play, high chair, baby flatware and toys. The pack and play was very nice- big with a soft mattress.
The hosts are very responsive and friendly.
One thing to note- the grounds include a working garden. During the day, depending on what work is being done, it can get loud (banging, chain saws etc). Not an issue for a typical traveler but it made nap time for our toddler difficult.
