I stayed at Bitte's place with my 2 teenage children- it was perfect for us - nice space, very pretty, quiet, with a balcony over the garden. It is located in a quiet residential area with a lot of character, at the foot of Fiesole, right on the stream- it is nice to come back from busy central Florence. It is definitely convenient for those who come to Florence with a car, as there is free parking across the street- it could be a bit far to walk for some from home to the places to visit-about 30 min -though we managed to walk - there is also a bus. The immediate street does not have much in terms of food but some 10 min walk away there is a market and store and cafes- just need to be careful with the time of arrival! The only problem we had was lack of air conditioning-not an issue most of the year, but we hit the really hot season-and missed the AC. Otherwise, a really nice stay, and Bitte's parents were easy during check in and check out!
