Matteo is a great host - very responsive and accomodating and also treated us to wine and snacks. The apartment is very stylish (it's been one of my faves so far) and in an area that is not touristy as it's on the other side of the river but still quite close to the centre (a nice walk or you can still take transit if you prefer). The kitchen is well equipt and you are close to supermarkets and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this apartment for your stay in Florence!
