We had two very nice and relaxing nights at Ulrika's apartment. It's very clean, private and stocked with all the things you would need. We liked being just outside the mass of tourists roaming the streets of Florence and enjoyed the neighborhood bars, restaurants and cafes. We were able to walk across the river to all the galleries we visited within 20 minutes. One of the best features of staying in this apartment is the 3 minute walk to the back entrance to Boboli Gardens. I discovered this too late for my trip but next time I'll be sure to take advantage of it and avoid the lines and crowds next time I stay with Ulrika. I highly recommend staying in the apartment. My only word of advice is to get clear directions on how to access the apartments.
