Paolo was a great host and very helpful. Her son handed over the key and showed us everything in the house. The apartment itself was located next to Mercato Centrale and also to the City Center. Everything was in a short walking distance. The Central Train Station is in about 5 minutes walking distance. It is an old, but charming building. The stairs are steep and short, so be careful. We visited Firenze during Christmas for three nights. There are heaters and they all work well. But as it is an old building, the isolation is not in its best condition. If you feel cold easily, then you may need to wear thick clothes. But in summer, it might be good as it is always cooler. We were a group of three people and we had enough room for all of us. We had enough cooking utensils in the kitchen for preparing our meal. The washer works great and also hot water supply. We recommend this apartment to everyone, who considers to stay close to center for few days.
