The terraces were absolutely spectacular and the higher/larger one sits above all neighboring buildings and most in the city. It basically has 360 degree unobstructed views of the city. The only downside associated with this are the many stairs required to get to the unit from street level but this is only an issue when first arriving with luggage (there is an elevator that starts a couple of flights up but it doesn't go all the way to the top floor where the unit is). The unit is well kept and has great natural light. It would work great for 2 couples or a family with older kids as one of the bedrooms is a mezzanine over the living room accessible via a rather steep and narrow staircase that also accesses one of the two rooftop terraces. The neighborhood is great as we felt a little removed from the tourism traffic and had many local restaurants, cafes, and shops to enjoy all while the main tourist sites (esp. Duomo, Ponte Vechio, Uffizi) are easily accessible with just a 10 minute walk. The neighborhood does have a bit of an active night life scene which did lead to some street noise late into the Saturday night we stayed there but the other two nights (Sunday and Monday) were fine. We also had just come from spending a few days in Tuscany so we were maybe a bit sensitive. Overall a great experience for our family.
