Thoroughly enjoyed the Italian-style building and our reasonably large room. There were central heating, an electronic key card, and a work desk, which was great. The location was central, adjacent to all the relevant spots in the City Center, the centre of Florence, and the interior garden. Also, a medieval cathedral was 2 km away.
