Irene's house is very gorgeous and spacious! It is a true gem hidden in the south of Florence. It has good bus/train connections to the city center, also there is a nice cycling path along the river.
Irene and her little daughter are outstanding and very helpful hosts. Her garden and house is a work of art made with great attention to detail - there are so many beautiful decorations all around! I felt like truly at home and for a few days forgot all the traveling rush.
