This was a good spot for us and marvelous stay, a bit away from the center while still being very close to all the main attractions. AC was good for sleeping at night. it's quite a lovely place, magical to be here. This is as close as you can get to sleeping with Michelangelo! San Croce is right across the street.
We were kindly greeted by a helpful young man who had great advice and give us good points and tips on the map that we used for the entire time stay. It was lovely to be able to open and close the windows depending on our mood through out our stay.
The windows face the street and canal. You will hear traffic outside if windows are open as well as music from outside space across the river. It ends at a reasonable hour and it was wonderful to come back to the apartment to rest and still feel a part of the wonderful atmosphere of Florence.
There is a grocery right down the street where one can by supplies to keep in the room for breakfast and snacks. We did laundry while here and it was very easy. There is an instruction manual next to the washing machine.
If you need a cab to go back to the train, walk around to the hotel that around the other side. The hotel guardian will help you. This is what we did to take us back to the train station as we had a fair amount of luggage.
The big problem here was one day there was a great deal of construction noise starting at 8am that we wished didn't happen. I hope that doesn't happen to anyone else. Supposedly, that work is almost done. We were here for 4 nights, having added a day from our original booking because we were having such a great time.
With the beds, there is one separate bedroom and you have to go through the room to use the bathroom so it can be tricky if you are more than two. The other two double beds are pull out and it the living room is essentially the same space. We were three so two in the bedroom and one on the hall sofa. The sofa was wide enough if one takes off cushions and uses bedding for a single person. This is a good place for family stay.
There are many doors here which is an advantage to isolate AC to one room and note have it in others if some don't like AC. One can sleep in bedroom with AC while others relax in the Living Room with the window open and ceiling fan.
WiFi worked well here.
