Francesco's place was very really well-equipped in a quiet place. Studio was very clean, cozy with everything what you need. We found there a lot of information about Florence with maps. The studio is on a busy street, with public transport at the door. There are three essential shopping possibilities: one is just front of the studio (for "emergencies", water, fruits and vegetables); another which is three blocks from the building, with very good prices and the bigger supermarket, further, but also where you can easily reach on the parallel street, there a couple of blocks where you can find a great deli with typical Tuscan food, wine , bread and antipasti. Francesco's studio is just 12 minutes walk from the main train station in Florence, Santa Maria Novella, from which you can make trips to some small towns of the surroundings or to major centers of Italy. Also it takes almost 20 minutes to the historic center. I recommend his studio to anyone who wants to enjoy all of the amazing city of Florence.
