Apartment in located in a gorgeous building at the far end of piazza Santa Croce. The views of the church from the oversized living room windows are breathtaking. Santa Croce is a great neighborhood and within easy walking distance to restaurants, museums, the duomo cathedral, and the oltrarno district. The apartment is on the top floor of the elevator building, and has been elegantly constructed with fine materials. The owner provides hotel quality linens and towels, toiletries, etc and a welcome basket of biscotti and bottled water, which are all a lovely touch. The comfortable en suite master bedroom is located on the lower floor. the 2 bedrooms on the second floor are rather small, the second with a sleep futon type of bed. Probably best for 1 person. We had a wonderful experience, and found the arrival and departure process easy.
