Fantastic Apartment with great views...but you better like climbing stairs.
We have stayed at over 50 Airbnbs and this was one of the nicest we have ever stayed in. The apartment is recently renovated so everything is new and in excellent condition. The bed is comfortable and the AC in the bedroom works very well. The shower is large with lots of hot water. There are two terraces off the apartment with wonderful views, totally worth the climb. There are 52 steps up leading to the apartment and another 20 stairs inside the apartment. There is no elevator in the building, so if you have large cases (as we did) it makes for a bit of a challenge. The apartment is located in a less crowded area of Florence, which we really liked as it gave us a chance to get away from the packed streets of the city centre. It is a flat easy walk to all the tourist attractions. Near the apartment, there are lots of cafes, shops and restaurants. There is a bakery right across the street and a small grocery store very close by. We never met our host as he used an automated check-in system where you pick up the key from a kiosk near the bus station. He did, however, communicate well through Airbnb. We stayed here for a week and we enjoyed our stay.
