Margherita's house is gorgeous and grand (much better than shown in the photos), with a rich historical background. Large, spacious, beautifully furnished with air conditioning, many bathroom amenities included. The house is located just south of the Arno in a relatively quiet neighborhood with many bars and restaurants nearby, and is just a 10-15 walk from landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery and the Florence Cathedral. Margherita herself is a lovely, hospitable host. We had a wonderful time in Florence!
