The location is great, close to restaurants, piazzas and bars. It is also 15 to 20 minutes away (on foot) from the tourist attractions in Florence. You can also get to the train station fast (also around 15 minutes) from where you can travel (by bus or train) to any of the surrounding areas of interest (Siena, Cinque terre, San Gimignano, etc.). The restaurants in the vicinity offer great food at good prices...don't miss this opportunity (also check out tratorria Diladdarno in the vicinity, it has some of the best food and deserts in this area).
