Staying at Lorenzo's place was great. He was waiting for me when I got out of the taxi and had a map of Florence to show me how to get to the city center from the apartment. He also had restaurant recommendations that were very good. Additionally I had a few questions about getting to a train station and where to find a laundromat, and Lorenzo replied to my e-mails very quickly.

The apartment looks like the photos and is very clean and well-maintained. It is a short 10-15 minute walk to the Duomo and center of Florence. A great place to come home to at night away from the crowds. I would stay here again.
