When you do feel like venturing out, you can soak up the stunning architecture of many of Florence’s most well-known buildings with Palazzo Strozzi, Santa Maria Novella and the Palazzo Vecchio just some of the delights within walking distance. Home truths: *Parking in Florence can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot. *This home is located on the first floor with no lift. *The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents. *This home is in a central spot, so some noise may be expected. *You won't find a welcome hamper or basic essentials here, so we'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started.
