Giovanni and Cosimo's place was in a great, central location! It's close to good shopping/restaurants/museums, but also in a quiet area away from lots of noise or busy streets. We were in Florence during a particularly hot week, so being able to come back to an air-conditioned home was a lifesaver. We had to go to the Florence airport at 4AM and Giovanni was kind enough to call a cab company and arranged to have a cab pick us up right in front of the home for an affordable price--lower than anyone else quoted us. I would recommend this place to anyone and will definitely book again next time I'm in Florence!
