Our stay at the medieval tower was amazing. The location is excellent in a highly desirable neighborhood right by Ponte Vecchio but away from the crazy crowds of the major sights on the other side of the river. We loved exploring all the local restaurants, cafes and shops that are much better (in my opinion) than those in high traffic tourist neighborhoods. The tower itself is an experience everyone should have at least once in life - despite being 12th century old, it has all the amenities of a modern loft and the interior design is impeccable. Alfredo and Maurizio are wonderful and kind people who answered questions right away and helped us with plenty of local advice. We would definitely return having found our new home in Florence :)
