Minutes from the main train station (Firenze S.M.N.) and a short walk to Duomo and other sites, yet far enough away from the bustle and noise. Michael kindly helped me with luggage upon arrival and gave me tips for sites and restaurants in the city. Since my stay was only two days, I didn't interact that much with the hosts, but the communication was prompt and clear. A nice option for staying near the old city: clean room, and provision of washing machine and AC could be a plus if you're looking for that (I did not need to use them).
