Staying at Federico's was the smartest thing we did on our trip to Florence. It has the Florentine feeling, the location is unbeatable (10 minute walk to the train station, really close to the duomo), we had access to the patio, kitchen, and we met some wonderful people. The price is well worth the experience. Our flight out of Florence left really early and we needed a cab at 4am, a difficult time to find one. Federico called well in advance for one to show up precisely at 4am and we were on our way. Leading up to the trip, communication with the host was clear and responsive. We went in the summer so it was obviously a warmer time, but the host provided us with a fan and we were comfortable. We recommend staying here if you want a florentine traveler experience rather than a hotel. Really fantastic! We would absolutely stay here again.
