I couldn't have asked for a better host than Filippo for my 8-day stay in Florence. As soon as I arrived, he explained everything I needed to know about staying there. He then invited me to join him at an annual street festival in a nearby square, which was one of the highlights of my stay! Throughout my time there, he was very helpful in offering suggestions for sights and neighborhoods to visit. He provided light breakfast supplies for me to use, and one evening we even had dinner together. The apartment is lovely, especially the garden, and it is just a few minutes' walk from the Duomo. Highly recommended!
