Our stay at Lorenzo's was fantastic. His Brother was very helpful and kind. There is a bus a few steps away that goes right to the city center, about 20 minute ride. We also took a taxi to the center of Florence for about 15 euros which was not so bad. The apartment is very spacious and very clean! If you arrive with a car, this is a great place to stay because there is a parking place right in the back ( it is almost impossible to drive into the city center). There are some very good restaurants in the area as well, about a 5 minute walk. I would definitely recommend Lorenzo's place for a comfortable stay in Florence.
