This is a wonderful place to stay . I lived in Florence for years, this trip I was visiting friends . This was close enough to the city but far enough . I can walk downtown ... 30 mins to center or taxi 10 mins , we did have a car( and a place to park ) but taxi is easier . The home is clean, she thought of everything . The ability to have my coffee sitting outside , in my pjs was great . We cooked for our friends 3 times and ate outdoors . Everything we needed was there . For American's it does have air conditioning and it works ! Sleeping was quiet and comfortable . I honestly don't have 1 negative thing to say . I have stayed in over 30 hotels / airbnb in Europe ... this was the best ( and that is saying something )
