We very much enjoyed our stay in this apartment.
First, it's a great location. We chose this location on the other side of the river because we wanted something close enough to the city center so we could easily reach the sites, and yet far enough away that we could find a little quiet. This was the perfect place, and of course you can just walk up the hill for great views of Florence.
Second, the apartment was very charming. We liked the feel of the wood beams and the loft.
We were promptly greeted by our host and everything was easy.
