Francesco is a warm, friendly and delightful host. He went above and beyond to make sure my stay was perfect. The apartment is so comfortable and has all the amenities needed for a short or even long stay. I enjoyed the quiet, the cleanliness and the beautiful and non-touristic neighbourhood which gave a real feel of local life. There are a few large supermarkets, bakeries, and restaurants within a few minutes' walk. There are several bus lines leading to key places in Florence. I walked to the centre a couple times and enjoyed seeing the local night life along the Arno River. Great place to stay in Florence!
