Maurizio's place was wonderful! The location worked well for our needs. Close to bus stops, but out of the city center. Despite the language barrier (I don't speak any Italian, and he speaks little English) we were still able to communicate well. Maurizio has a wealth of knowledge about Florence and Italy, and he's happy to share it! The rental is actually a bed and breakfast run by Maurizio and his wife so we paid an extra 1.50 Euro per person per day. It was a surprise to me (possibly I just didn't read the listing well enough), but happily paid anyway for the breakfast service they provided. The house itself was very nice with modern showers and bathrooms. Overall, this was one of my best airbnb stays! I highly recommend it!!!
