The building that the apartment is located in is stunning. The actual apartment that you stay in is very run down, with old and worn out furnishings. Also everything felt damp there was mold in the bathroom. I highly recommend bringing your own towels, because the towels that are given are probably 20 years old. If you are able to walk up 120 steps to get in and out of the apartment more power to you. The description of it being on the 4th floor is not helpful because the 4th floor in American terms doesn’t seem that bad. Here one floor is equal to two floors. After walking the city all day, walking up ALL THOSE STAIRS, was almost impossible. The best thing about this place is the location, it is very close to all the major attractions in Florence.
