More than anything on this trip, I was looking for outstanding views and a place with a little character. That is precisely what we got from this stay. Sitting in the backyard, gazing down at the city lights is a memory I will keep always. The art in the room is lovely. Try to catch sight of the painting on the easel with the morning sun streaming through the door and it completely transforms. The cupboard kitchen was wonderfully useful and the firm bed was to my tastes. Definitely bring bug spray because catching the breezes through the shutter doors in the evening is heavenly. Also bring a plug splitter if you come tech heavy. Figuring out the busses is a breeze if using Google maps, so getting into the city is fast and easy. Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens are walkable from here. We also walked up to Piazzale Michelangelo in the dark to catch the views at dawn. A bit of a longer walk but still quite manageable and highly recommended. Over all I'm very happy with this choice.
