Very convenient location, but away from the crowds on the other side of Florence. There is a lot of activity at night in the square, but I found the noise bearable and had no trouble sleeping. There is a lot of space--big bedrooms were comfortable and had high ceilings--but there isn't much of a communal sitting space, except for a small room in the middle. The kitchen is a bit narrow but well stocked, with more than sufficient cutlery and dishware. You will probably be spending more time out and about anyway, in which case this place is close to everything--pretty much a maximum of twenty minutes from all the attractions in the city. Lots of nearby food options as well, and markets within a five minute walk if you need supplies. Communication with the host was also very quick and reliable. Would very much recommend this place for a visit to Florence.
