Zein's place was great. It is an entire apartment in which he rents out 3 bedrooms. We got the one with the private bathroom which worked great for us. There were people staying in the other 2 bedrooms during our stay but we didnt really run into them. The apartment is located about a 5min walk from the Santa Maria Novella train station which was very helpful for us since we took the train to and from Florence. Getting to most of the major attractions can be done on foot. Zein himself was also a great host and gave us tips on how to get to certain places. Our room had a big queen bed and a little sofa. We would definitely recommend Zein's place to future travelers.
