My stay in Stefano's penthouse was excellent! The location is very convenient and the terrace was fantastic! I relished the view from the terrace and also the view out the windows from inside the apartment. The kitchen was one of the best ever (although there is no microwave) and the bathroom was also top notch. The 102 steps to reach the apartment were not difficult--they were normal sized steps (not 15th century high or uneven steps!) and were well lit. Café Ricchi is immediately next door and it became my usual place for coffee and a cornetto. The restaurants in the piazza were great and offered a nice variety. I especially liked the frequent markets in the piazza. It was nice to be around real Florentines and not the tourist throngs. It was a short walk to get to anything in the city that I wanted to see. I enjoyed staying here so much that I am returning in the spring! Thank you Stefano!
