Fabio's place was very tidy and about a 5 minute walk from the nearest bus stop. We had a baby traveling with us and we were more than happy with the amenities provided in the kitchen and the house on the whole. His place is a walking distance from all major attractions but if you buy a bus pass you can hop on and off pretty much anywhere you want to go. We were really comfortable in his home and can proudly say we not only visited Florence but we did live there.
