Luce's place is great if you would like to have authentic food, gelato, and night-life experiences all while being so close to the sights to see in Florence. It is a 20 minute walk to the train station (straight shot), close to several buses and trams, and also about 20 minutes MAX to any other attaction. I believe it was 13 min to Uffizi, 20 to Santa Croce, 5 to Piazza Piti. Additionally, Luce is a fantastic host. She was quick to respond, was very accommodating to us, and provided tea/coffee/sugar/honey. The loft is great for 2 people but anymore would be extra cozy.
