We really enjoyed our stay at Giovanni's condo! The place is fully renovated on the inside but still has some characteristics of an old building! My friends had their 1yo baby with them who enjoyed the extra space he could run around :) location is topnotch- sub 10 mins walk from the train station and few minute walks from too rated restaurants! Night life can be loud but that didn't bother us at all as we were there to get a full experience of Florence :)
