You couldn’t ask for a more centrally located apartment in Florence (View out one window to Giotto’s campanile). Literally step out of the front piazza and turn one storefront length to the Duomo’s piazza. We almost chose a spot in a less touristy neighborhood across the river but we’re glad that we chose this since our time in town was so short and there was a terrible heat wave while we were here (103 degrees!). On that note, our first concern was AC and it worked extremely well. Thank goodness, because walking outside literally felt like walking into a convection oven! Massimo was a kind and helpful host and was very prompt with communication as we arrived in Florence and made our way to the apartment. Washing machine worked great and two laundry soap pods were provided, along with a huge drying rack. WiFi worked great here too. We enjoyed our short stay in Florence and would recommend this apartment to others
