Place is super close to Duomo just as advertised- although the distance from S.M.N. Train station is a bit further than expected. More like 1km than 400 meters- expect a slow walk if you carry a luggage and of course, there will be lots of people on the street :).
Unfortunately there were work being done at the building front which made the entrance a bit harder to find and Chiara was running late meeting us at the agreed check in time (2pm)- I had to make a phone call to ask where about she was( she showed up in about 5 min) which was expensive/ unexpected.
As it turned out, cleaning is still being done at the place by the time we arrived and it wasn't finished until 3pm- we stayed behind to wait it to finish instead of going out straight away like originally planned.
Another tip for the place is the hot water is very slow to run at the shower- takes about 2 mins and water pressure is rather low. I made a another call to Chiara as I wasn't really comfortable just to let the water run not knowing if hot water is working or not.Chiara's hubsand answered, at 11pm, nicely. Problem solved.
The check out time was 10am, Chiara was nice to let us leave our luggage at the place until 12pm. It was make clear that the cleaners will come at 10 to start cleaning so we need to pack up and let the cleaners get the place ready for next guest. However, when we returned at 12 to pick up our luggage and for the train station, nobody was in the house and I wonder if this was the reason caused delay on our first day here. Of course if you check in later in the day- you wouldn't have any issues.
Overall a lovely stay and location is central to the rest of Firenze.
