This is a wonderful apartment! It is very close to the train station, so you do not need to drag your bags all over town. It is also very close to the San Lorenzo Market, which is fun to visist, plus the new indoor market which is full of fantastic walk-up restaurants and a great bar/coffee shop. There are many great places close by--- food and tourist attractions. We walked everywhere on this visit. One drawback is the noise-- since it is right on a very busy main street we ended up hearing all kinds of street noise-- people, cars, ambulances, etc. However, this was only a minor issue. Also-- lots of steps to walk up to get to the apartment , no elevator. But it's very well decorated and has everything needed to enjoy a stay in Florence. The host was very helpful and friendly.
