We stayed at Matthew's place in Florence and loved it.
First ,he was always great w communications & never disappointed us .Second,his place is very centralized (right by Duomo)& was really close to everywhere we needed to go (need to mention Florence is a small city to begin with).
Our 1st trip to Italy was a great success and we have Matthew to thank for.
His place is really clean & had all the items needed for a tourists(even the converter for cellphones).
Definitely stay at his place and you won't be disappointed.
