Settignano is a beautiful village in the hills of Florence with spectacular views over the city. There is a bus stop really close to the appartment, where you can take a bus to the centre of Florence 3 times an hour, it takes approximately 20 minutes to get there. I definetely preferred staying in settignano over the city centre. The appartment was clean and just large enough for a couple. It has no airco, but there is a fan. Make sure to bring bugspray.
At the main square of the village, you can find a bar where you can buy breakfast and sandwiches. We could not find any grocery stores near though. I would come back here again
