Francesco made us immediately feel very welcome and provided everything for a comfortable and pleasant stay. It is a great place to visit Florence and to get to know not just the history of the town but especially the people living there now and today - the close neighborhood in the street is already worth to stay a few days - it is italian and not touristic - we just loved it. The city and everything else is easily and quickly reachable by bike, frequent buses and also by foot. Very good restaurants, bars and grocery stores are just around the corner and provide everything you need for self-catering or being lazy and enjoying florentine hospitality at its best. We enjoyed very much the latter...
