we had a great atay.! the licRuon is fabulous as it's only a 5-19 minute walk to all the action, but you are not in the middle of the Florence tourist craziness! there is a great supermarket one block away,as well as a few pastey shops and lots of other shopping. the neighborhood is busing during the day, bu very uiet at night. also, there is air conditioning. we would definitely stay again.
