The location is close to Florence train station. Florence is small. Every attraction is within walking distance. Therefore, 5 minutes walk to the train station becomes significant, especially with luggage. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had earlier hour tour, the staff arranged breakfast boxes for us. Again, all attractions are within 15 minutes walking distance.
