The location is ideal for exploring the historical centre of Florence. Just go round the corner (with the house of Andrea del Sarto) and you will see the magnificient front of Ospedale degli Innocenti built by Bruneleschi. Bus from a nearby San Marco bus stop will take you to Fiesole.

The flat, located in a cinquecento house, is spacious, clean and has all the neccessary equipment. It has a terrace where you can smoke if you are a tobacco addict. You can also see the Duomo cupola from there.

Laura was very friendly and helpfull. We have not seen much of her since we regularly returned at midnight or later. We offered her a compensation for a mocca pot we have burnt due to our inexperience with cooking on gas, but she declined.
