Francesca's place was fantastic. We stayed there for 3 nights while in Florence. It is the perfect base to explore the city. It is very close to the major sites (Duomo, Uffizi, and Gallery are all within 5-10 minute walks), which is perfect for waking up early to hop into the lines for the museums. Francesca was very helpful and accommodating, especially with allowing us to check in early. I would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it to others!
