Location was great ! Florence is very touristy in the center of town, almost too much. However, Monica's place is south of the river and even though it's only a 30 minute walk in to the center of Florence, it is very much a 'locals' area.
There is a bus stop right outside the door and a second 3 minutes away.
The room is clean and the bed is perfect. The keys are in a lock box so no stress at check in or check out time.
We loved our stay and we loved the restaurant around the corner - Affè di Bacco was a great experience. The staff were exceptional, the pizza was delicious and the pasta - fantastic.
Loved our stay - thank you Monica and thank your Mum please !!
Gary.
