Simply an excellent place to stay with a warm and wonderful hostess in a great location. Lots of space and a well-equipped kitchen, spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, good wi-fi, filled with lovely art and beautiful coffee-table books on Florence and Tuscany, this place was the perfect location for our 4 day stay in Florence. Anna was a terrific hostess, and left us a bottle of Chianti and some Florentine cookies as a welcome gift, along with a few basics like coffee. It's about a 3-minute walk to the Duomo and Baptistry, and close to all the other main sites. And while there are quite a few steps up the old stairway, remember that you'll be working off the wonderful food as well. Highly recommended.
