Carla’s place was perfect for our first visit to Florence. The climb up the stairs with our luggage was tough but expected based on some of the other reviews. We felt the location was PERFECT. We could walk to everything and the little market down the street was awesome. We heard from a local chef that it’s where the locals shop and that it’s much better quality than the bigger tourist market. We also ate the pizzeria right downstairs and it was phenomenal (get a reservation to be safe). If we find ourselves back in Florence we would definitely stay at Carla’s again. Thank you so much for the excellent communication and friendly hospitality.
