Avetis's place was right in the heart of Florence. We could walk to all wonderful places within minutes. The Duomo was about a five minute walk away, as were many wonderful restaurants. We especially loved the mercado with all the variety of foods to be had, and all was really delicious as well. The only issue we had was we were given two sets of keys for the door and one set really was difficult to use, in fact we thought we were going to be locked out. We needed to get a local to help us with the lock....the other set (which we had left inside) worked just fine...so make sure you take both sets of keys! Other than that it was all great!
