Giovanni's flat is in an excellent location, accessible to everything. We found markets, self service cafes and restaurants close by and that made it very convenient to buy food to cook and other needed items. His apartment was very spacious and clean for us. We really appreciated the washer and full amenities. Giovanni is a great host. He could not meet us on arrival but his mother did and provided the keys. He stopped later to answer our questions and show us further things about the washer and heating system. Giovanni also called a taxi for us. That was a huge help. We would be very happy to stay in the apartment again when in Florence.
