The owners were very friendly and helpful, both before and during our stay. They were waiting for us when we arrived, were able to provide an extra set of keys on the spur of the moment and were flexible when we needed to change our departure time on the last day. The deposit was returned very promptly.
The situation is great for site-seeing and there is an excellent restaurant in the same street, which we would highly recommend.
The bedrooms and main living areas were spacious and the whole place was very clean. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The apartment was very secure with, apart from the main street door, a metal grill gate and a very secure lock system to the apartment itself.
The only downside to the apartment was that there was quite a lot of street noise at night, mainly from revellers returning home even though the apartment is on a small side street. I would guess, however, that this is a general issue for any accommodation right in the centre,
An excellent location to see Florence, so close to everything. The owner and his partner were very helpful and accommodating assisting us in obtaining a large taxi the morning we left. You need to be fit to climb the stairs but we soon got used to it. The restaurant below was also very good.

The apartment was super clean, well-appointed so that for a longer stay you could cook, clean, etc. (we stayed a week) - but the best aspect was the location. First - maybe tops five minutes to the Uffizi/ Piazza della Signoria , Palazzo Vecchio, etc.,. Same amount of time to the Ponte Vecchio, and only 8 to 10 minutes north to the Duomo. The location is absolutely in the thick of everything to which you would walk.. Additionally, it was a residential street, so the partying students and tourists were not directly outside your door. That being said, all the restaurants, shopping, and a supermarket were just a cross street away. Wifi was great (I worked mornings).There was a locking gate a few steps down from the front door so you were very safely tucked away. The only "cons": if you are older, bad knees - or just hate steps - there were 45 of them winding up to your door. Well lit and solid, we thought this was 100% fine and gave a little height to the apt. which we liked. Also, the picture doesn't lie; the bathroom is well equipped, modern, super clean, and extremely narrow. While sitting for business my husband's knees were against the wall. These are small points and not a reflection of the apartment itself, with otherwise good-sized rooms, cranking AC and additional fans in the bedrooms. Heaven. We would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend the apartment. Easy check-in/check-out; Sara was very nice.
