My parents stayed at Maria's for one month. It was their first time in Italy and they wanted some place close to everything but tucked away from the touristy center. Maria's place was just that. I stayed with them for a week out of their trip and we all agree we loved Maria's apartment and Maria. It was a very comfortable 2 bedroom with a great kitchen, which was important for my parents since they wanted to be able to cook during their stay. Maria was available whenever we had any issues or questions. I would highly recommend staying here if you are ever in Florence.
