Giovanni's apartment is in a fantastic location to explore Florence from. It's close enough to explore the tourist attractions from on foot, but also located in an area which felt more local. The apartment was comfortable and had most of the amenities we needed. The only major downside was that we had a couple of nights where we kept up later than we would have liked by noisy neighbours as the sound traveled through the stairwell, although there wasn't any street noise.
Overall, a pleasant stay and a great area to be based in for a visit to Florence.
