What a gem! Amidst a bustling street in the heart of Florence, there is a wooden door. Through it and up a short staircase is a grandiose flat in a medieval building. The place is gorgeous, spacious, has wooden beamed ceilings with views onto the street. It is kept clean and well decorated. It even has AC to cool off from the summer heat. Our host was easy to get a hold of for directions and even greeted us with a bottle of wine when we arrived. The location is central with minute walks to every notable location in Florence - monuments, plazas, and museums. There are a lot of restaurants nearby for a variety of options. As are the cafes for an espresso and a snack in the morning.
