Excellent location, apartment exactly as pictured
Silvia was in touch almost immediately after we landed. She was great! She met us at the apt to walk us through the somewhat tricky process of entering the apt, which required 4 keys to unlock 4 doors. Pay attention to this!! And, remember to ask her about locking the doors. We had an unpleasant interaction with a neighbor who was furious with us. We don't speak Italian, he didn't speak English, but we understood that somehow we locked him out of the 3rd door. He spent several minutes yelling and showing us how to properly use it. We never understood, so simply left that door unlocked all 4 nights of our stay! The location of the apt was directly across the street from a university. Classes began daily at 8:00 am and the street was full of young adults by 7:30. This isn't a place you would be able to sleep in much past 7:30. Lots of cars and motor scooters parking directly on the street below the apt. We loved the location and could see the Duomo from our windows. It was a short walk to everything we wanted to do - Duomo, Uffizi, Accademia, restaurants, Ponte Vecchio, all within walking distance of approximately 15-20 mins. I never did get the coffee machine to produce a cup of coffee.There is a caffe steps from the apartment if it doesn't work for you either. Apt was very clean and beds were comfortable! If you'll be using the sofa bed, let Silvia know ahead. Keep windows closed, the mosquitoes are horrendous!
