Though I am sure there are other apartments in Florence with a similarly amazing location – – you’ll walk 15 minutes to the train station, 10 minutes to the Duomo, 10 minutes to the Ufizzi, 5 minutes to the river– – I can’t imagine there is another place that’s simply this quiet inside. In other words, you get the best of all worlds here: close to everything, utterly peaceful day and night, impeccably clean, spacious for one or two people, and it even has a terrific shower. On top of all that, dealing with the owners was a delight. They are friendly and responsive and informative. I can only highly recommend.
