The apt. is in a convenient location, right across from the Mercato Centrale, a short walk from the S. Maria Novella Train Station. From here, it is also an easy walk to the Duomo & Ponte Vecchio. It is renovated w/ modern furnishings with tall ceilings and windows. It is comfortable and clean. Maria Teresa is a clear communicator and provided good directions for us to find our way there. The only things to be prepared for is that there may be noise from occasional events held in the Mercato Centrale and noise from the market opening in the morning. 2nd, the stairways is a bit worn, warehouse like, have to use your cell phone flashlight in the middle of climbing the stairs. We enjoyed our stay. thank you.
