The Mauro's place is super close to Galerria Academia (with David statue), taking you around 10 walking. To other attractions are also quite easy by walking. Mauro's home is quiet. You have good privacy when staying here. The room is in the 2nd floor without elevator, you only need to carry luggage upon stairway. It would be fine. Florence has a thousand places to visit. Upon my arrival, Mauro gave me a quick introduction for must-go attractions. It is good if you have limit time in Florence. I enjoy Florence.
