Our stay at Mario's apartment was excellent.

The apartment was clean, spacious, and well furnished. Location was conveniently close to bus routes and the Castello train station, with central Florence being a short ride away.

Mario and his wife were extremely helpful and generous hosts. A homemade cake was waiting for us on arrival, and Mario kindly
drove us to the nearby supermarket for immediate food supplies.
A mobile (non-smart) was provided with Mario and Anna's number saved should we need to contact him.

Mairo offered to drive and act as a local tour guide on a day trip to San Gimignano and Siena. This was great, and also allowed us to take in some local landmarks that we would otherwise have found difficult to get to without a driver.

Overall we were very happy with the apartment and Mario's services; we'd recommend them anyone staying in Florence, and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
