David is a great host, and the apartment is wonderful. It is located in the part of Florence where locals live, and so there are fewer tourists. At the same time, all the major attractions are within a 10-minute walk from the apartment. Local restaurants are great, and you should definitely follow David's advice about the places to go. It is very easy to find overpriced food in Florence, so knowing where to go can save you a lot of grief (and cash :)). Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here, it was very quiet and yet close to everywhere you want to go.
