Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
There’s a lot going for this apartment in the heart of Florence. The living area is bright and well laid out, with a compact kitchen that has everything you need for simple meals, while the bedrooms are tucked away upstairs for a quieter night’s sleep. Both bedrooms are modern and comfortable, though one includes a sofa bed where the fifth person will snooze. It’s also worth noting there’s no lift here, so you’ll need to tackle the stairs up to the second floor. That said, with the Duomo just around the corner and Florence’s must-see sights right on your doorstep, it’s a small trade-off.

There are around thirty steps leading up to the front door here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.
You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
