Marco's place is just outside of Florence, on the northern tip of the city, with a bus only meters away to take you to the city center. Having already been in the city for 2 days (and was uncomfortable with so many people out and about during the covid pandemic), all I wanted was to rest, to sit in a peaceful setting and write. The photos you see are exactly that. Marco suggested I visit Fiesole, and I'm glad he did. Only minutes away, I spent a lovely day in this small town, allowing me to see more without returning to the city.
The bed and pillows are comfortable and the towels are very nice. And yes, the welcoming bottle of wine was much appreciated! (and good!)
Marco was very accommodating to my schedule and very quick to respond. He has a list of restaurants you might want to visit but when I asked if he knew somewhere closer (I didn't want to drive back into madness), he quickly provided a great place close by, where I enjoyed a great calzone!
If you are like me and get over-stimulated in the city, Marco's place is the perfect retreat. I definitely recommend.
