Nicola and his mother are really nice hosts. It was a pleasure to stay at their apartment. Nicola's mother is a friendly and kind woman with a good level of English. She gave as really good advise about "must-see" places in Florence.
The apartment is clean, quiet, spacious and well equipped with everything you need. I agree with a user Zoe that Nicola's pictures don't do the place justice!!! The apartment looks better in a real life than on the pictures. It is a beautiful apartment in a great location! We didn't use public transport to get to the city center because it is reachable by foot.
I definitely recommend this place for staying in Florence!
