This is a cutsy non pricey studio flat, at the first floor of a traditional building, very conveniently located between Santa Maria Novella train station and the city center. The flat was spotless clean and in good order, with a nice selection of books and guides, fresh towels and beddings and a mini open plan kitchen to cook meals. Paolo was a helpful host and he strived to make our staying comfortable. Sadly throughout our staying there was loud night noise coming from a pub in front of the flat, which made it difficult to sleep properly, no internet connection and no central heating but a noisy air conditioning which added to the pub noise. Perhaps the pub is only noisy at the weekend, but I would suggest ear plugs. Downstairs there is a basic internet cafe', although having a connection in the flat would have been better.
