This is a great apartment! The description and photos are accurate (although the "two steps from Ufizi" is not literal). The apartment is quite spacious, well furnished, and was clean. The location is fantastic - right in the middle of and easy walking distance to many of the key attractions in downtown Florence (Ufizi, Santa Croce, Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio), yet the street it's on is a quiet side street. There was a little nightlife noise from a few people walking down nearby streets, but it wasn't much, and it must be a lot quieter than most streets in the area. Massimo was a great host, friendly and communicative throughout. On our first day and night it was unusually hot, and it turned out the air conditioner wasn't working, which led to a pretty warm night in the apartment (it's on an upper floor). We told Massimo the next morning, and even though it was Sunday he brought in a portable air conditioner unit that morning! We loved the restaurant next door, it was probably our favorite restaurant of all in our two week trip to Italy. Overall, the apartment was great and we would definitely be back.
