Claudio’s place in Florence was located perfectly for everything we did during our stay there. It was a 10-15-minute walk to most of the main sights and we had no issues with the area it was in. His place is on the fourth floor and there is no elevator so you will have to take your luggage up the stairs :) The amenities were great and the loft was extremely spacious. We had some issues with the overhead shower water pressure, but the bathroom was otherwise very clean, spacious, the water was hot and the hand held shower worked just fine.
