Carmine ist the best host someone can wish for! He provided the best tips for places to hava a nice pizza, pasta or drinks. Although, we never met he always responded very qick to emails or questions I had and I think he is the only host I know who provides a more or less 24 hour availability, UNMATCHED! Thank you for this! I was welcomed by his cleaner, who was very kind and who gave me access to my room before regular check-in time so I could leave my luggage there. The room itself was very clean, spacious and it had a fan, which was perfect for the the hot nights! The apartment is located in central Florence and has everyting around you need, restaurants, the food market as well as the leather market. I highly recommend staying at Carmines apartment and I hope one day I can return his warm hospitality :*
