I couldn’t recommend Uma & Tina’s place more for a visit to Florence! The pictures don’t do the place justice—it’s so beautiful, I’ve never stayed anywhere like it. It’s perfectly located down the street from restaurants/bars/vintage stores, and a quick 15 minute walk to the historical sites. I loved the area also, as it was bustling without feeling touristy. Uma & Tina gave excellent recommendations for the area (you must go to Gelateria Carraia), and the treats left outside were a sweet touch. The stairs were indeed steep, but was totally fine for me.
