Overall: The location was perfect for us away from the heart and very busy part of Florence, but perhaps not so good for first-time visitors who might want to be in the historic center. Enjoyed Most: The roof top view of the city and river. Enjoyed Least: The lack of windows and natural light. Surrounding Area: Lots of little restaurants, with "Zeb" being a great find on Yelp. Tips or Restaurants: Good for a couple with children as the other bedrooms were small and not appropriate to share with another couple. Directions: It was an easy taxi ride from the train station but a bit of a long walk with luggage. Check In Out: No issues, as they were very gracious and helpful
