Simone was a wonderful host, providing very helpful information upon check-in. He also let me know that I could use anything in the apartment, even his bike if need be! This made the place feel like home, as if I lived in Florence. Simone's roommate, Mauro, seemed very kind as well, even though I only met him briefly when checking out. The room was very comfortable, and I liked the layout of the apartment. Simone informed me of some building work on the pipes that may affect the shower, but luckily there were no issues. Still, it was nice to get a heads up just in case, instead of being startled by a cold shower. The apartment is just around the corner from the bus, which gets to the city centre in around 10 minutes. The walk to the city centre is around 15-20 minutes, which I tended to prefer because you get to walk alongside the river. Overall, I enjoyed my stay with Simone, and would recommend this listing to everyone!
