Pros

Located in a residential area away from tourist crowds

Small tree-lined square with benches and a newspaper kiosk

Local restaurants nearby serve authentic Chianina T-bone steaks

Quick 5-minute access to A1 Motorway Firenze Sud exit

Cons

2 miles from main historic attractions

Limited on-site dining options

“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.”
