Mario was ready to meet us at the scheduled time- he was ready with neighborhood suggestions, map, bus info, etc. It was about a 20 minute walk to the start of the old section of Florence. The guest house was nice and very clean. Our room and its private bathroom were both spacious, the bed was comfortable. As the room we were in was on the ground floor it was very loud at night so be prepared for that. Besides the noise we loved our stay at L'Aranceto Guest House.
