We had a great experience. Everything was excellent. The hosts were very friendly and cool. They helped us with advice and informations, as it was our first stay in Florence and Italy as a whole.
The place is situated in a quiet area of Florence, yet very close to the center - one day we had to wait the bus for 2 hours, so we decided to walk instead. It took us literally 20min to walk to the center.
About 2km away is a big Eselunga food store, where you can buy anything you want. Overall I would recommend this place and would go there again.
