Ezio was an amazing host with a beautiful apartment in the perfect location! There were so many great restaurants and stores near his apartment! It wasn't too close to the touristy areas but still at a walkable distance, and only a few minutes away from the beautiful bridge connecting the river. Ezio also was kind enough to give us recommendations for restaurants (we only found out after arriving in Florence for the first time that it was near impossible to get into any of the good restaurants without one, but luckily Ezio managed to secure one for us the night before) and even call them for us to make reservations!
