Should You Book Casa Juliana Comfortable Holiday Residence?

Not Ideal For
- Travelers who need to be in the middle of Florence for maximum walkability to major sights
- Light sleepers who prefer the most central locations (this property is in Pontassieve, not Florence proper)
- Travelers who want the closest airport to be Pisa rather than Florence (Florence Airport is the nearer option at 30 km)
