Extraordinarily great place to stay! You do NOT have control over the temperature in the unit, but if you close the hurricane shutters, you should be cool enough. Other than he temperature (extremely hot August this year), the place is FANTASTIC!!! We loved staying in this beautiful studio... especially as the first place we "landed" in Florence! Vincenzo was OUTSTANDINGLY gracious! The elevator did not work while we were there, but we only had one suitcase each. It was fine!!
