If you´re looking for a quiet location, just over a little more than 10 minutes away from the centre by bus ( bus stop is a 3 minute walk away) and a cozy, modern apartment, then this is the place! We had a fantastic stay in Florence - we were lucky with the weather at the beginning of March - and Francesco´s place was indeed an oasis after all the walking. There´s a great cafeteria to the left about 50 metres away which sells pattisserie, wine, sandwiches and...very importantly: the bus tickets! Supermarkets are just over 15 minutes away. THe neighbourhood is amazingly silent for Italy. Francesco himself was all eagerness to help, answering every question and doubt immediately. A super host!!!!
