Gréât location, and pleasant accommodation. The host was quick to respond to our need of doing laundry and provided a rack for drying clothes. The washer worked well. The historical aspect of the building added to the feeling of back in time. The music played on the plaza was a special delight and we enjoyed listening to the accoustic sounds that rose up to our floor in the evenings. The life and bustle of the city did add to making the stay a memorable one ! If you enjoy city life in an ancient city, this studio is the place to stay ! Florence embodied the past and present with the duomo and its churches and all the many museums and galleries that invites one to return. Will be back!
