Francesco was a most helpful host, picking us up at the train station in the rain even though the apartment is only about a 7 minute walk from the train station. He was very quick to respond by text anytime we had a question. The apartment is a beautifully just-renovated/restored part of a palace. It is decorated with a mix of period and modern furnishings and has incredible fresco ceilings. The apartment is very spacious, quiet, and comfortable. I definitely will contact Francesco when we return to Florence someday.
