Carla and Marco’s apartment is a lovely place to stage your visit to Florence. Their place is centrally located near Florence’s main train station (i.e. you won’t need a taxi!) and Carla and Marco themselves are charming and helpful hosts. You’ll get an abundant breakfast daily and great tips of things and places to see/do/eat. The room is a little loud at night if you leave the window open (earplugs do just fine, I found) but I didn’t find it bad. All in all, it’s a charming space and having your own small refrigerator is really useful. Mirtili - their elderly bulldog - is a great companion in the mornings. I’d stay here again!
