We had a very enjoyable 3 night stay at the Churchside Flat. Natasha and Alex were very responsive hosts and Natasha was there at the flat to welcome us and explain what we needed to know. The bed is comfortable and the flat itself is charming. The flat felt very secure, as the front door has a 4-bolt lock. The location is also perfect- close enough to everything you will want to see (10-15 min walk to Duomo, 15-20 min walk to the train station, 2 min walk to closest restaurant) but just far enough out that you can escape from the business of central Florence. There was a little bit of noise from the restaurant downstairs around 9-10pm, but it wasn't disturbing at all.

I would really recommend checking out Gelateria Santa Trinita which is just a 5 minute walk from the flat and is easily the best gelato we had the whole time we were in Italy. There is also a good pizza place very close by called Neromo.

All in all, I highly recommend this flat and would happily go back if I was in Florence.
