Michela's place is an absolute gem. The 'Old barn' is an idyllic place, with scenic views. It is very well equipped with modern amenities, and is also spacious. It is located in the outskirts, but is no more than 20 minutes away from the city center, by bus. The neighbourhood is very safe, and also has supermarkets and restaurants within walking distance. The property has ample parking space. We had rented a car for our stay in Florence, and it was very convenient for us to exit and travel to other cities in the region. It is outside the ZTL which makes a big difference.
Our host and her mom welcomed us when we arrived, and even left us a bottle of local Chianti wine. The check in and check out were hasslefree.
We had a fantastic time here, and felt that we could spend another couple of days just sitting at home, sipping wine and enjoying the Tuscan countryside.
