Stay here if you want to be in the center of it all, but retreat to your private oasis. Loved coming back here between different tours to freshen up (it was 90 degrees the entire time) because of the convenient location. From the apartment you wouldn’t have any idea that out the front door you are surrounded by thousands of people. Nico gave me and my friends a private tour with tons of facts I don’t think many Florentines even know. He also helped me find the nearest post office and what to do when I got there. I will stay there again!
