We spent 10 days in Mario and Niccolo’s apartment. It is just as they advertised in the description. The layout with loft sleeping area was unique. It comes well appointed with everything needed to take up housekeeping or just use as crash pad. The location is great! Centrally located with reasonable walks to the train station, cab stands, Palazzo Vecchio. Surrounded by restaurants, cafe’s, and other shops, yet couple blocks away from the hard-core tourist trap areas. Niccolo met us outside of the building and guided us to the entryway and inside to his door. He was a welcoming and patient host, answering all of our questions and showing us how everything worked. They have a binder prepared with house rules, instruction, maps, tourist info, and recommendations on restaurants and off the beaten path shopping. It was a good experience for us. Only caution is that if you are mobility-compromised, this apartment would not be the best choice. It is on 2nd floor without elevator and the spiral staircase is tight. Other than that, we recommend heartily!
