We are rating this property five stars for its spectacular location. It overlooks the Ponte Vecchio in the most picturesque spot where all of the tourists stop for photos. It is also steps away from the Uffizi Gallery and a quick walk to all of the other major sites. We found it so convenient to be able to pop back into the apartment midday to enjoy the air conditioning or have a quick restroom break (it can be challenging to find public restrooms in Florence!). The apartment itself is clean, quiet, and well-equipped. As an earlier reviewer mentioned, the only drawback was a sometimes strong, swampy smell that I understand can be common in Florence due to the proximity of the river (we noted the same smell in the lower level of the Uffizi). If you are sensitive to smells, you may want to take this into consideration; however, we felt that the incredible location more than made up for this minor inconvenience, particularly since we were always on the go! Overall, this was a great value for the location and we would not hesitate to return to the Vasari Suite.
