“What sets this place apart for me is its location, nestled away from the bustling city center, offering peaceful riverside strolls along the Arno; the staff's warmth and the convenience of a supermarket across the street are definite advantages. Its Tuscan country house style struck me as particularly homey. For those seeking a quieter Florentine experience, this could be a fitting choice.”
