A must stay!!!
This apartment was an absolute dream to stay in. The whole place is very clean. The kitchen was small (only two burners) but very easy to cook in nonetheless. The bed is so comfy you won’t want to get out (but you really should because there’s so much to see!). And the shower was wonderful in both pressure and temperature.
And that’s not to mention Paolo himself! Not only did he meet us at the train station and give us a small walking tour on the way to the apartment, but he also provided us with so much helpful information about Florence. It was so easy to plan our time with the great advice he gave us.
Don’t miss the restaurant across the street! The 10€ lunch menu is one for the best meals I’ve had so far in Italy. There’s a laundromat only a few doors down and a two grocery stores in less than a five minute walk.
As for sites you couldn’t want a better location to work out of. The river is no more than two streets away, Il Duomo is 10 minutes (climb it if you can!), and many more places we visited were all within a 20-30 minute walk. And the proximity to the train station makes it ideal if you want to take day trips to other cities during your stay.
Again I HIGHLY recommend this apartment! Or any of the other properties Paolo hosts. Looking forward to returning to Florence one day!!
