The apartment was amazing. The photos show it as it is but the layout is great. It is located on the 1st floor (only one set of stairs up). We loved the local neighborhood but please not that it is a little hike to the main city center (about 25 min walk). So worth the walk since we passed so many great little shops walking back and forth. Also there are many bus stops so if you are not into walking it is a short bus ride to the center or to the apartment. The shops are the selling point plus it is by the river which means it is easier to see the sunset over Florence. Matteo was a great host that kept in touch with us and gave helpful pointers like how to open up the couch bed (which my friend said it was very comfortable). 10/10 I would stay here again!
