2 nights in Florence
It was a great location to walk to the local attractions, a few minutes walk from the Ponte Vecchio, and about 10 to the Uffizi gallery. The only downsides are that it is in a ZTL but that comes with staying in the heart of the city, and you need to take your own separated trashes out to the trash can down the street. That's not necessarily a bad thing, just not accustomed to doing that since we are American. Be aware that the bedrooms are downstairs in a basement and the only way to access is by spiral staircase. It is not meant for large luggage. We traveled pretty light so it was good for us. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Nice Location - Not Three bedrooms
The location of this unit is great. You can walk to the Ponte Vecchio bridge and the Uffizi Gallery. However, to get to the unit you had to climb a number of stairs - which we did with our luggage as we walked from the train station. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and we also found a grocery story. The check-in was easy with a code to the outside door.
We had five adults and expected three bedrooms. I wish I would have read the reviews more carefully. There is one real bedroom downstairs with a door and attached bathroom. There is a bed behind a partial wall in the downstairs and the third bed was a pull out couch in the downstairs. The spiral staircase, beautiful and unique, was difficult to use. It was challenging to getting our luggage down. We had 25" suitcases for our two week adventure. When you are in the downstairs area there is no egress. The first floor had a couch that pulled out into a bed but there was little room to navigate with the bed open.
The kitchen was very small but adequate. The bathrooms were nice and there was plenty of hot water.
We chose this unit because of location and having a washer and dryer. The washer and dryer were outside the unit in the lower level that wasn't well lit. We were told it was exclusively for our use but it was used by the doorman and there was laundry on top that was never collected. We used the washer and it ended up with error code with our clothes floating in water. We contacted Serena and she had the doorman look at it while we were out. The air conditioner didn't work when we arrived and the doorman was able to reset the unit by switching a breaker in the basement. It had an error the day we departed.
Serena is easy to contact and is responsive. Her communication is brisk with most responses, "everything is perfect." It may be in part to a language barrier.
I would recommend this unit to no more than four adults or a family with two older children.

Perfect spot to explore Florence
This apartment is in a great location just south of the Ponte Vecchio - perfect for exploring central Florence and the views from Piazzale Michelangelo and the Boboli Gardens. The downstairs bedroom are so lovely with their vaulted ceilings. It was me and my sister staying for a couple of nights and it was everything we needed.

Quiet and Quaint
This apartment was perfect. The location was central. We visited in early September when it was still hot. The AC unit upstairs and the dehumidifiers downstairs we’re enough to keep the place cool. The spiral staircase was unique. 2 beds plus a couch downstairs and a couch upstairs. Both make into beds. 2 full bathrooms. Simple kitchen and a Nespresso machine. 5 of us had a super time.

Not true to description
Santo Spirito is a beautiful apartment 10 minutes walk from Uffizi.
I would have given it 4 or 5 stars, but it turned to be too small and too hot.
We were a group of 7 (2 families with kids). The apartment was described as a 4 bedroom property – sizable enough for 7 people. But it is definitely not a 4 bedroom apartment. It has only 1 proper bedroom – master bedroom with en suite bathroom. There is also another queen size bed in a corner behind a screen (3/4 of the ceiling height). There are 2 pull out sofas in the downstairs living room and upstairs dining. So technically the apartment can sleep 8. However, with all sofas pulled out the apartment is very crowded and crammed. Upstairs living/dining room has no room to move, so we had to fold the bed up every morning.
Also, we happened to be in Florence during the hottest days. the apartment doesn’t have AC except for a small one in the kitchen upstairs which wasn’t working well. Downstairs is underground, so it keeps cool but not enough in 105 heat. The listing has AC mentioned
Parking: the apartment doesn’t have designated parking. We arrived by car which we parked outside of ZTL. Serena can provide the names of the parking lots but doesn’t assist any further. I would say that this apartment is perfect for 2-4 people staying during cooler months.

Loved the apartment
We never met the owner/property manager. She gave us the address and code and we were able to locate and enter without difficulty. The apartment is beautiful, quirky, artsy and fun; just as pictured. It was nice having two bathrooms and both were updated and clean. It was not air conditioned, but the lower level where the bedrooms are, remained comfortable. The upper floor which contained a small kitchen, a table and couch became a little warm later in the day. There were plenty of fans around to use if needed. The location was perfect near the Ponte Vecchio. I would definitely rent this apartment again.

Florence small pproperty
First, I think this is definitely a very unique property, the brick work was beautiful and the location was perfect. Unfortunately, this is not a 4 bedroom property and proved much to small for the 8 adults we had. There is actually 1 bedroom with a door and another with a divider wall, the additional spaces where 2 sofa beds, of which one was adequate (downstairs) but the upstairs one left no room to walk. The bathrooms were good. We had to leave after one night because we didn't really fit. The washer and dryer is in a common area. it would work well for a family but not for 8 adults.
