Lilia's place was perfect for our stay in Florence, it's close to a supermarket and some very nice places to eat for 5 min. walking. Although we didn't meet in person, the communication with Lilia was smooth. Everything is within walking distance, for example, the station is 20 min. away and the historic center with the Duomo is the same. The loft is very nice, with some really cool art touches. It's spacious, with a big bathroom, which is pretty rare for Italy, I must say. Comfy bed. Maybe the only downside was that it was hot, even with the air conditioner, but the weather was extremely hot when we were there. Also bear in mind there is no elevator, so if you have a big suitcase, it won't be very convenient.
