Whoa! I’m not kidding when I say the location is simply so close and convenient to Florence’s many sights and to all public transport including the main train station and indeed a ram ride to the airport. It’s a lovely space with good, CLEAN amenities, a great fridge and a very comfortable bed. The A/C came into much (and really welcome) use during a warm September, which is not something a lot of places in Florence can offer.
The beautiful Arno river is but a stone’s throw (like, really) from this lovely spot where one can watch the sun go down. Supermarkets, clothes shops and eateries are all similarly right at your doorstep (a highly rated restaurant being literally out the front door).
Perhaps most importantly for people like us, the communication was simply top-class. Francesca couldn’t meet us on arrival but was constantly in touch and instead was able to organise a friend to take us through the property when we got there - we liked that.
We stayed 3 nights (honestly, you can’t really see Florence properly in less) and highly recommend this place as a perfect home base.
