Great location! Very close to the Duomo and the Uffizi. Truly in the heart of Florence. Many shops, restaurants, gelato shops within short walking distance. Air conditioning works quite well if you are traveling during the hot months. A great value for a solo traveler. Also, a nice bottle of wine, juice, milk and pastries were waiting for me. Lorella is up front about the 4 flights of stairs and that it is tiny, which was fine with me. Someone with a lot of luggage may find the stairs difficult. Also, if your cell phone data is turned off and you rely solely on wifi, be sure you have wifi somewhere the day of check in to receive the codes for the door.
