Serena s home was lovely. An authentic Florentine home. It was close to a grocery store and a couple of cafes and pizza shops which made food easy. We were there Christmas eve until the 26th and found it a little far to walk to city center since the public transit was on holiday schedule and taxis were expensive. Nevertheless it was great for the four of us and would recommend to anyone who would like to stay authentically and comfortabley.
