We just returned from our European trip 2 days ago and really can't say enough about this location, in particular. Location, cleanliness, amenities, host - all were absolutely top-notch. We were able to walk everywhere - never used public transportation except on our check-out when we had too much luggage to walk to the train station. Steps from the Duomo complex and endless food/gelato options, etc.. In the future, if we're in Florence and this place is available, this is where we will be staying.
