My friends and I had the most amazing time in Florence mainly due to such a great place in a great location, with an even better host! Michele was constantly in contact with us, and helped us with anything we needed since he lives close by. At one point our wifi was down and Michele installed an emergency backup before we even knew it was down! The spot is so cute and clean and minutes away from the Duomo, nightlife, train station, etc. Michele also met with us at first to give us a map and point out where to go and also set us up with a reservation for my birthday at a superb restaurant around the corner. We really could not have asked for a better experience, it felt like we truly lived the Florence experience. Yes it is up a few flights of steps but there is an elevator and if you're going to Florence you better be prepared for walking and steps! Also Michele set us up with a cab to the airport when we were leaving. I can't say enough positive things! Thanks so much again Michele!
