Mauro's condo is excellent. The location is on a residential area away from the center/downtown of Florence. There is a bus stop about six or so minutes away by walking. There is a laundromat about four minutes away. There's a couple small cafes within four minutes, as well.
Check in process was super easy and Mauro was very accommodating. He showed us the place, our room, and provided the guest home rules. He also gave us a bunch of info about Florence and a map!
Each room (there are three) are locked by key, so although there may be other people staying at the same time, there is no issue of anyone coming into your room. Our room had AC and a private bathroom.
There is a small kitchen with refrigerator and sink.
What w great host and a great space!
