We really enjoyed our stay in this Airbnb. The location was convenient, being very close to the train station but not too far from many of the major tourist sites of Florence, plus the amazing central market. The street it was on was very quiet, and we had no noise issues at all. The place was nicer in real life than it even looks in the pictures – very spacious, extraordinarily high ceilings, clean, and comfortable. It was also well-equipped. The hot water for the shower required a little bit of manipulation to stay hot. It was very nice to have a washer/dryer. The dryer is one of those evaporative types, so it takes awhile to dry – be aware. There was ample storage for all of our stuff. We were able to completely unpack for a week. The host company was very responsive, and the person who greeted us to orient us to the unit and give us our keys was outstanding - helpful and full of suggestions on places to see in Florence that we might not have otherwise come across. There was a grocery store around the corner, and coffee shops and restaurants galore in the area. There were also several bus stops nearby for when we wanted a break from all of the walking. However, the buses are not always reliable, so always have a back-up plan! Bus tickets are available at local tobacco shops.
