Andrea's home is in a great location, allowing us to take time off from driving as the historical city center of Florence can easily be reached on foot. The house is also close to a train station if you don't want to walk. We found the walk to be nice as you are in a park and along the water the entire path.
Andrea met us in the parking lot and helped bring our luggage inside. After we were settled, he offered us beer and wine while going over a detailed map showing exactly where we were and highlighting suggested places to go along with the best routes to get there.
The room was comfortable and we had everything we needed.
