We highly recommend staying at Joshua’s place in Florence. The location is fabulous; it’s located right next to a tram station and it is within a reasonable walking distance from the city center of Florence. Besides the locale, Joshua is everything you need in an owner. He was extremely kind and helpful during our stay. He gave us a detailed tour of the place and made sure we knew how everything worked, including the front door lock. We also encountered a luggage and passport snafu at the airport and Joshua accompanied us and acted as a translator as we attempted to retrieve our belongings. Without his generous help, we may not have gotten our luggage for several days. He went above and beyond his responsibilities to help us on our first trip to Italy and aid us with settling in to his place, and he was nothing but enthusiastic to do so. We are incredibly grateful for his presence and generosity. Again, we definitely recommend staying at his place as he works hard to ensure a great experience.
