Daniele was everything you could want in a host -- warm and welcoming, helpful and informative, and very professional. The apartment is walkable from the train station and to all major sites in Florence. The apartment was clean and we'll-appointed. We both slept well in the bed. The balcony was a bonus, though we were there during a cold snap and couldn't enjoy it much. We loved the neighborhood, which has a nearby grocery store and many good restaurants.
