Mario is amazing!!! The location is outside the main part of Florence but is literally right next to a train which can take you to main station. Mario even gave me free tickets to help me on my way for the first day. There was a mix up and we missed each other, but Mario found me and took me to the apt and even took me grocery shopping...what a guy! This is a great find if you want to feel more like a local and avoid the crowds of Florence. Apt was awesome...there was even wine in the fridge.
