How can one rate a place "Close to nightlife" and yet also "secluded"? Well, this place is set right in the action, but its far back from the street behind much stone. So, a great getaway without getting away. The three biggies were covered very well: Good shower with space to move and power to get soap out of long hair, AC that included not one, but two units to ensure that the loft was properly cooled as well and a really comfy bed. The washer worked great too . Overall this place was clearly created with great care. We loved the original bits (beyond the brick ceiling in the loft, check out the paint on the roof of the toilet area (as separate from the shower, always great). There was strong wifi, it was close to sights, quiet, and had great hosts. I can't imagine bothering to find a different place next time in Florence and would likely change visit timing to ensure availability of this place.
