Samuel and Paolo location was centrally located and close to everything we wanted to see in Florence. The block the apartment is located has a lot of different restaurants and small grab and go food location as well and many gelato shops. Around the corner from any shopping you may want to get done during your stay. Very safe location as well being that we are traveling with our 3 month old daughter. Overall had a great stay and great host and would recommend this location and would definitely stay here again.
