We had an amazing stay here! The building itself is beautiful. There is an elevator as soon as you walk in, followed by a few steps to reach the apartment. When we first arrived, I took the stairs all the way up and was already in love before I even reached the apartment. Inside we found a bright sunny space with everything we needed to prepare our meals which we enjoyed on the terrace with beautiful views. The sunrise was breathtaking from the large kitchen window and there is a beautiful view of the top of the Duomo from the bedroom windows (very comfortable beds) We enjoyed hearing the bells from the tower every half hour! Access to the balcony is through the smaller bedroom by the kitchen making it easy to bring things to the table and enjoy the view . We found salt, pepper, olive oil and ground espresso in the kitchen. In the bathroom were two very small bottles of shampoo and toilet paper and bright white towels (no wash cloths). Also, dishwasher pods, dish soap and laundry detergent. Iron/ ironing board and drying rack.The grocery store is two blocks away and has everything you need there from fresh and packaged foods, wine, all toiletries. Everything is walking distance. Museums, restaurants, you name it! The host was amazing and so helpful throughout …right down to the last day with suggestions for our day trip. I would recommend this apartment to anyone staying in Florence! And if we visit Florence again, we would definitely stay here again!
