The location of this sweet little apartment really can’t be beat! Even the taxi driver said “wow, this is the perfect spot to stay in Florence”! Everything is within walking distance - museums, restaurants, shopping, etc. The location above the plaza is extra special for people watching, or for enjoying a glass of wine at the end of a day of touring. There was a even a live concert in the plaza one of the nights we were there. The style of the apartment really added to the Florence experience!
For us, the sounds from the plaza were not troublesome at all, but light sleepers may want to take note, or perhaps just bring earplugs. The location and balcony are worth it!
I will say that the apartment is stocked with only the basics, which may be just fine if you only use it as a place to shower and sleep. It would have been nice to have extra towels, a bath mat, dish towels, extra toilet paper, coffee filters, and such to make it a bit more welcoming, but that said, I will still enthusiastically recommend this apartment to any friends traveling to Florence!
