“This B&B struck me as a true find in Florence, where it's easy to be either overwhelmed by crowds or underwhelmed by generic hotels. The location hits a sweet spot, removed from the tourist crush but still an easy walk to the Duomo. From what I gathered, the staff goes above and beyond, adding a personal touch that's rare these days.”
