Marcello’s flat is perfectly located in Santa Croce, walking distance to any major sites in Florence that you would want to see, and surrounded by bars, cafes, and restaurants! The apartment is comfortable, and gets lots of natural light. It has air-conditioning, and the Wi-Fi is strong and reliable. Marcello was communicative throughout my stay, and always answered questions I had very promptly. Even though he was not able to check me in personally, his friend welcomed me and carried my huge 50-pound suitcase up the steps to the top floor. Worth noting: there are 3-4 flights of stairs to the top, so mentally prepare if you have a lot of luggage! That said, it was still totally worth the stay, especially for the location! I needed a later check-out time, and Marcello also accommodated me very graciously. I would definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family!
