We were received by Mattia, who was extremely kind and welcoming. The host had a bottle of wine as a welcome gift in the apartment, and pointed out all of the best spots in the city on a map for us upon arrival. The apartment is spacious, clean and very beautiful. It is in walking distance of anything you would want to see in the city and is very comfortable. This place truly made us feel comfortable and at home in Florence! Mattia and David responded immediately to our questions and offered to call us a taxi when we left to go to the airport. If you are staying in Florence, this place is a serious catch.
