We really enjoyed our stay in Florence! The location of Federico's place is perfect if you want to be right in the heart of the tourist area. The big selling point of this place is definitely the lovely balcony and view of the Duomo. You can't beat that! It's a perfect place to sip coffee or tea and lounge in the fresh air. Federico was kind and very thorough upon checking in. The apartment was tidy. However, there isn't a closet to hang coats or anything. There is a very tiny rack with hangers but no matter what you put on it your clothes would drag on the floor. There also aren't any hooks to hang coats or even bathroom towels. Very strange smell coming from the bathroom that is trying to be covered up with air-fresheners. The kitchen has all of the essentials minus anything to dry your hands with (no paper towels or any hand towels). While everything is tidy and completely functional think more along the lines of dorm room Ikea furnishings that are just kind of old. Again, nothing wrong with the place but for the price point my guess is you could find something a little more upscale in the area. It's absolutely perfect for a younger crowd or students looking to be in the heart of it all! The view and balcony almost make it worth it!
