Avoid the crowds and enjoy Florence from the rooftops. The pictures and description of this place is spot on and we had an excellent time. The views from the two balconies were amazing, and we were centrally located to everything we needed. It is a short walk from the train/bus station, two blocks from duomo, located near several restaurants, and in the evening the bustle from below ceased and it was quiet. I would stay here again for sure. Enjoy!
