The description of the location is understated in their description! It is on the busy street leading straight to Ponte Vecchio. But being in the Penthouse made it a quiet and peaceful spot. We are 70 years old and walked everywhere from this location - even to the train station, but with luggage and very crowded and cobblestone streets it is much easier to take a taxi. The place was clean and welcoming with a wonderful balcony that gave a partial view of the Duomo. We realized there was a Three Tenors concert in a attached remodeled church/concert hall. You are within a 5-20 minute walk of 95% of the city sights. Even though right in the middle of a very busy street, the building is tricky to find, and the doors are tricky to unlock (so be sure to watch the video website sent to you and remember the steps for entry.) Mini-markets are nearby, but it is cheaper to walk a little further to a Conad Supermarket or Carrefour Market.
