Giulia and Massimiliano’s apartment is a great place from which to discover Florence. It’s ideally located at the mercato centrale and everything is within walking distance. It can be a bit noisy at the mercato, but Giulia and Massimiliano kindly provided ear plugs in case the noise would be to much (for us it wasn’t). I didn’t get to meet them in person, but communication was smooth and kind. Would very much recommend!
