The hosts are incredibly friendly and give good suggestions and orientation when you arrive. The site is a beautiful, well-stocked piece of the Tuscan countryside with a place to park your car, but a short bus ride takes you into the heart of the Florence attractions - once you have the schedule (3 or 2 times per hour) you can plan your comings and goings (or you can drive to parking garages). There is a good restaurant just a few minutes walk away.
