This apartment was more than we expected, we arrived earlier than the stated check in time, Carlo accommodated us with absolutely no problem. He was friendly and extremely helpful. He made us feel right at home in his wonderful apartment. Carlo gave us a map and showed us the popular places tourists should visit and where he use to hang out when he was out on the town. The apartment was located right in the heart of Florence just few mins walk from everything, we originally chose this place because it was close to the train station and we had a 7 am train to Rome the day of check out But, it turned out to be close to shopping, sights, food , mini market on the corner, laundromat , and a discotec right outside of the apartment. We also had the most amazing pizza place across the street that stays open for a late night pizza run :) . We can't thank Carlo enough for making our stay in Florence such a great experience. Carlo also took us out for a glass of wine when we arrived and told us a bit more about Florence and the history of it. It was a great start to the trip. If we come back to Florence we are definitely going to contact Carlo for the same location.
