in the heart of Firenze
We stayed in the Lorena apartment for five days in early Dec 2015 as part of our month in Italy for our 25th wedding anniversary. We had booked into the smaller apartment (Caterina) but were upgraded at no extra cost into Lorena when the guest in Caterina extended their stay. Regine met us at the apartment, helped us up the 60 or so stairs with our luggage and provided us a lot of useful information which assisted us in our stay. The location was very central with easy access to all the sights of Firenze – we counted the paces to Piazza della Signoria – 38 in total – it is genuinely just around the corner. The central nature of the location allowed fantastic access to all Firenze has to offer and we were able to walk everywhere – the central markets (eat in the upstairs food gallery), Accadmie, Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio etc. – from this apartment you don’t need to catch a bus or a train to get anywhere in the city. It was a joy to simply roam through the streets of Firenze soaking up the atmosphere and then find a little wine bar in which to recuperate. However there is significant activity in the streets around the apartment late at night and into the early hours of the morning – after our first night we shifted into the back bedroom which was a lot quieter. While we loved the location and the ease of access to Firenze from the apartment, the street noise may be an issue for people who sleep lightly – the stairs would rule out the apartment for those with mobility issues.
