The apartment is beautiful and its location is ideal- in the heart of Florence and shopping area. All historical sites are within walking distance. The house is beautifully decorated, newly renovated and clean. The hosts are very kind - gave us all the information we needed and suggestions on restaurants. They even helped us to find a doctor and let us check out a bit later because of an emergency we had. I fully recommend Mario's place. Stay there and you won't regret it!
