Communication with David in preparation for our trip was great. There was a bit of confusion when trying to meet his father to go to the apartment together. Having a landmark with an address to map to would have alleviated the problem and saved a lot of time. David's dad and uncle don't speak much English but were super nice and helpful and drove by some key places to show us around on the way to the apartment. The apartment is nice and big and in a GREAT central location. Having a parking space outside the city and staying right in the heart of the city was a perfect situation for us! The furniture is a bit dirty/worn but we didn't stay in the apartment long because we were busy exploring Florence.
