this is the perfect place to visit Florence. you can walk to Ponte Vecchio in under 5 minutes and everything else is within walking distance. there's a nice puzzaria right next door and a coffee shop two doors down. Emanuela provided excellent tips for us to visit Florence and we followed her advices and had a great time.
now the downside. this is a small place. it's great for a solo traveller but a bit small for 2 adults. my wife and I traveled lite and we didn't have a lot of luggage so it was ok. if you have large suitcases, the space will be a bit tight. also, I wouldn't recommend this place if you have mobility issues as you have to climb up a ladder to go to the bedroom.
overall, we're really happy with our choice and we had a great time in Florence thanks to Emanuela.
