We didn't meet Adriano but he was very helpful and reliable in the lead up to our arrival with how to get to his apartment. We arrived via train and could have easily caught the bus but opted for a short taxi ride instead. Our taxi driver was awesome and gave us a few hints and pointers including the 'best gelato in all of Florence' which just so happened to be around the corner from Adriano's apartment. We met the cleaner Cecelia who was lovely and offered to help us with our bags and also if we required any other assistance. The apartment itself was incredibly spacious for the two of us with an awesome split level bedroom, bathroom, kitchen with several utensils and more. The location is close to everything you'd like to see in Florence without being in a touristy area.
We had a lovely time in Florence and wouldn't highly recommend Adriano's apartment!
