Max & Laura's place was a perfect place for our large group with kids. We were two families with 4 adults and 7 kids. The apartment had more than adequate space for us to spread out and not get in one another's way. There were plenty of beds, several bathrooms and a wide open living space. The apartment was clean and the kitchen well appointed. Max was a warm and delightful host -- almost immediate in responsiveness before and during our stay. Checkin and checkout was a breeze and Max was quite flexible on checkin and checkout times -- we were uncertain of our arrival time in particular until the day or so before and he was just as kind as can be. He made a number of recommendations for local restaurants, bakeries and the like, which were all spot on. The apartment is well located, a few blocks off the main tourist areas (and most close to L'Accademia) -- which was actually a positive in our view as we left the crowds behind in the mornings and evenings, but were still easy walking distance to all the main attractions of Florence. Highly recommended and would absolutely stay again in the future -- especially with a medium to large group.
