My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights. Federica and her husband Stefano were very pleasant and welcoming. The area is absolutely beautiful, in the hills between Florence and Fiesole with vineyards surrounding the villa. You definitely feel like you're away from all the bustle of the city, which is refreshing. Getting to the city center is quite easy via bus. It's a 15 minute scenic walk to the nearest bus station, where the 11 bus will take you near the center of Florence. Stefano gave us a map and showed us how to get around. Buy your bus tickets in bulk to save money (we bought a pass for four rides for 4.80). Overall our experience was very positive. The villa was clean, and had everything we could need. It was perfect for us, and we hope to go back one day.
