    Location is just fantastic. Everything you need to see in Florence is in walking distance. Supermarket close too. The owners Paola and Roble are extremely nice, helpful and they also gave us some recommendations for restaurants and places to visit...

    Really kind host with a comfortable bed, clean bathroom, and awesome location. Just minutes from San Lorenzo and all the other moments were walking distance. Also, five minutes from the train station.
