Guido's place is superbly convenient since it's literally a few blocks away from Palazzo Vecchio. The house was very quite, clean, nicely decorated and it's in a safe neighborhood. It could use a few updates like soap and shampoo in the bathroom would be nice.

We didn't run into any problems meeting with Guido and Mr. Lombardi (who just lives in the same building and takes care of your daily needs) and getting the keys. Mr. Lombardi doesn't speak English but it is not a problem since you can always give a call to Guido if you run into any issues. Guido did a wonderful job explaining the house rules and how we can contract him in case of emergencies. He is very friendly, has good knowledge of English and most importantly very prompt when it comes to communication. He even gave us good tips for transportation and food. Thanks to him I had the best sandwich of my life! There is internet at home but it's very slow so make sure you have a backup plan for wireless access if you need to watch Youtube.

Overall wonderful choice and experience if you are gonna stay in Florence for a few days for touristic purposes. Thank you Guido!!!
