Stayed nine nights in this apartment and was perfect in every way. I've been to Florence many times and prefer staying in the Oltrarno district. The locale of the apartment is ideal as you have great Trattoria's, cafes, bakeries, delis, etc all within 5 minutes on foot. I never took a cab (except airport transfer) on this visit and was in and around Florence city every day, the walk along the Arno is easy and beautiful as you head to or back from the "city". It's really an exaggeration to say city as, again, everything is within walking distance if you so choose. The host Silvia was very helpful and provided great communication and easy check in. The property is very clean and bright with large windows and great views, very well equipped. As a rental property owner myself, I was pleased with every aspect of the stay. I highly recommend!
