The flat is exactly as described and very central to everything in Florence. We found it very easy to walk everywhere! Paola had a lot of information available to us to help our stay including maps and restaurant recommendations, as well as where to find a more affordable supermarket! She and her husband were very accommodating of our delayed arrival after we were stuck in Bologna during our overnight train into Florence, it was very kind of them to allow us to check in so early! The only note I'd make is to be aware that the central location does mean noise late into the night, primarily on weekends. I'd recommend earplugs/headphones for any light sleepers. A great value!
