A great home base in Florence, partially up the hill towards the best city view in Florence, and next to plenty of restaurants and bars and gelato stores. Easy walk to the tourist spots, and to the oltr'arno where there's a lot more local feel. Elena was wonderful, quick to solve any issues, and ready for us at checkin. Very welcoming. You do have a nice little patio, there's no view unless you're a basketball player, but it's perfect for pastries and tea in the morning. Definitely would stay again.
