My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights and would absolutely return. The location was great. Short walk about 7 minutes from train station. The walk up the stairs was the most tedious part, if you have large bags you will get a work out, but the terrace and view are well worth it . Other reviews talked about ants, I saw only 3 in the bathroom which is not a problem at all. The shower is a bit tight if you are a bigger person but just fine for us. The bed was very comfortable, air conditioning worked perfect for those hot summer nights. There are a few bars and discos close that may have noisy patrons but all of firenze is busy so it didn't bother us. The only thing from the room I would say was needed is wine glasses. There were none, but everything else was there. It really was a beautiful apartment. It is a 10 minute walk to just about everything and very centrally located. Make sure you go to the second floor of the central market (mercato central) for lunch. Incredible!!! Perhaps the most important thing to mention was how amazing monika from florence concierge was. She had one of her people (laura) meet us to check in. She was perfectly on time as we arranged to meet at the apartment. She spent time with us recommending restaurants and places to eat and shop and site see. She was very nice and helped a lot. Monika was absolutely incredible. She went way above and beyond the call to help us with a personal problem and made phone calls and emails. What amazing hospitality. Truly incredible! Thank you Monika! I would absolutely stay here again and if I picked another spot it would only be with florence concierge.
