The apartment is small but well equipped and comfortable. The location is superb and is within walking distance of the train station (about 20 min) and many major attractions.

Lorenzo wasn't able to meet us, but his friend Andrea was waiting for us when we arrived. Both were very friendly and helpful in their correspondence.

I definitely recommend staying at Lorenzo's apartment if you're in Florence for a couple days. The only two things I that might make this apartment not suitable for some people is the location and the size of the shower. The location is very central, which also means that it can be a bit noisy (though I travel with ear plugs and didn't find the noise a problem). The shower is small with a very low ceiling (you have to sit in a small tub). Anyone over 5'5" is going to find showering an interesting experience and anyone over 6' may have difficultly showering.

Overall, it was a great place to stay with very nice hosts.
