Alessandro deserves to be called a super host. A better location cannot be found within proximity to the Duomo piazza. The pedestrian only street section was a plus. We could walk to all restaurants and all of the Florence sites we wished to see. Around the corner is Bistrot 74, recommended by our host and very welcoming to tired travelers, and just down the street toward the Accademia (David statue) is a sweet wine bar called Antiche Dogane, our perfect corner bar. On any future visits to Florence, we will stay in this perfect location.
