Xuhua’s place provided us an excellent location from which to explore Florence- just steps away from one of my favorite gelaterias in the city (Gelateria deli Neri). Most major sites are a 10 minute walk from the apartment. This is the biggest benefit of the apartment.
The accommodations itself were pretty modest- if we were staying for longer than a night we may have wanted to stay in a place that had more comfortable beds and natural light- but for a night or 2 this was fine.
