Michele's flat in Florence was wonderful! He met us upon arrival and showed us his amazing place! The pictures do not do this flat justice! We were also relieved to find that the flat is on the first floor (after staying in 5th floor walk-ups the rest of our European trip). His recommendations for restaurants were STELLAR - best food we had on our entire trip! I would highly, highly recommend this apartment for your stay in Florence, wish we could have stayed longer than 2 nights!
