This flat is conveniently about a 20 minute walk from downtown Florence. The unit is cozy and stylish and includes everything you need. Unfortunately during my visit there was some construction being done to all the outside balconies so there was a lot of scaffolding and netting covering the outside view. In addition, I think the construction workers turned off the outside water heater during the end of my stay so unfortunately I had no hot water for a day or so. This wasn't the host's fault, but unfortunate timing for me so I won't count that against my rating. Also, as a general note, if you visit during warm and humid times, beware of mosquitos - I was eaten alive after l left windows open to keep cool at night.
