Amazing location - just above a great street off the beaten path but close walking distance to great cafes, a super helpful and well stocked wine shop and one of the best Gelato places in Florence just around the corner, etc. Cute space, great AC for summer, but there is no getting around the 91 steps to the front door! It didn’t bother us as we were planning on doing a ton of walking on our trip - Duomo dome, bell tower and the Boboli gardens (located right behind the penthouse). Check in was a breeze, very helpful and eager to assist.
