The place is in the middle of everything.While it is close to Duomo and Uffizi gallery and tons of restuarants/shops, it has its downsides as it is extremely noisy. The amenities in the house can be updated (dryer, better soap, shower head)
While other guests talk about noise, visitors should be aware that two of the 3 bedrooms are so noisy that it is impossible to get a good sleep. There were daily brawls outside the wine bar where we wore woken up with shattering bottles outside the window.
Unfortunately we were robbed on New Year's night. While we were not harmed, it was scary experience. The host was very responsive to help make us feel safe by changing the lock, but please don't think that since the place is in the midst of a very busy location, it is safe. Please take precautions to completely lock the door and make sure that no one slips inside the outside door when you enter.
