We met with nicola's mom since he was out of town. She was wonderful and explained every detail that nicola was going to mention to us. They went out of their way to give us the saturday/sunday bus schedule which we originally didn't even consider. The mom spoke good english so it was easy to communicate with her. The place itself was big! Nice washroom and it was just a great place to stay overall. It was too bad we did not have more days in florence but it was a great experience there overall. Thanks nicola and patricia! :)
