Great Location walkable anywhere in Florence. We went in "lower" tourist season (not that Florence really has a none tourist season) so it is also a great location for just exploring without any planing. Florence is such a beautiful city. If you can you should jump on the occasion. There are stairs that are pretty steep so I couldn't recommend this for elderly or who has difficulty walking, but if you are also looking to tone up its' a great reflection of how old buildings used to function.
