Paola's apartment is located in a very convenient and central location. However, I would recommend it more for young travellers who will not mind the late night/early morning noise from the central market located just below. It was very hot in Florence during our stay (with only one fan in the house). Upon our request, Paola was quick to supply an extra fan and a cooler but without these, I think other travellers will also find it difficult to stay here during the summer.
