Excellent location, lovely room and friendly staff!
Pros:

It is in the perfect location in the centre of Florence, but it was still quiet enough to sleep at night. The room was clean and spacious with a comfy bed and a lovely big shower enclosure. The air-conditioning was a huge relief in 30 degree heat. The breakfast was typically Italian - coffee, pastries and fruit. Cereal was also available and the hosts made a special effort to provide me with soya milk, as I am lactose intolerant. They were very friendly and welcoming, helped with our bags. The hosts kindly allowed us to leave our luggage in the reception area after we had checked out on our last day, so we could explore Florence without carting bags everywhere. When we returned, they organised a taxi to take us to the train station.

Cons:

The only concern for some people may be the stairs - there are 4 short flights. As a reasonably fit 60 year old, I managed fine though. (The host also kindly took my suitcase up for me).
