I think Francesco is a superhost and I can see why he earned that title. Besides being super responsive to a question that came up, his apartment was super clean and well kept and full of amenities like a washing machine, a lift to get to the apartment, a balcony with view of palacio vecchio, a well stocked kitchen, and in the heat of late July and early August an air conditioner in each bedroom — all in a quiet place outside of the hustle and bustle. We traveled as a family of four, my wife and two sons ages 14 and 12. We could not eat out every day. However his kitchen had everything we needed and the supermarket was just down the street. The apartment was centrally located in a quiet neighborhood near the Duomo and also the Academia and everything seemed to be a ten minute walk from the apartment. There was a nice cafe just a couple addresses down the street for a convenient and inexpensive breakfast. I have no reservations recommending this apartment especially if you are traveling with family.
