Niccolo was very communicative from the moment we sent our request. He greeted us enthusiastically and gave us a map, a list of museum,s sights, activities and restaurants he recommends, and even a mobile phone so twe could reach him, make local calls or phone for a taxi!

The apartment itself is clean, has cooking facilities, a washer and a nice bathroom with plenty of towels. The bed is large and comfortable.

Niccolo's flat is quite conveniently located...it took us no time to get there by taxi from the train station and it was about 20 minutes to the airport.

If you're accustomed to air conditioning, be aware that in the summer time, Florence can get quite warm, so you'll probably want to sleep with the windows open. Unless you're a heavy sleeper, bring your ear plugs or buy the "White Noise" app for your mobile phone.

Overall we had a great experience, and can't say enough nice things about Niccolo as a host.
