Irene and Alain's place is perfectly located, near to the Doumo yet quiet and comfortable. In fact you have a view of the Doumo right outside the door. It is clean and the kitchen and bath are a good size. The laundry is in a separate building but right next door. Alain is often there if you have any questions. All the important sites are within walking distance yet you have a little oasis of calm in the middle of hectic Florence. I highly recommend it.
