Samea was a good host, and the room was as described. The area is quite close to the tourist sites of Florence: ten minutes to the Duomo, Accademia, et. al. For those here for research or studies, it's also about ten minutes from State Archive and various faculties of the Universita'. One problem is that there's no WiFi, as the walls of the building are too thick, but this is a very common problem in Italy.
