Mauro was a really friendly host. His space is a very cool old building with an old elevator in addition to stairs. My room had a tiny little balcony off of the bathroom that overlooked the back of the buildings and laundry lines. Nothing like feeling like you lived in Italy! I loved it! The 2 cots sitting inside twin bed frames looked much larger in the pictures. It took a nightbyo get used to but mine was comfortable. The building must be centuries old. It’s very cool. It’s s €20+ taxi to Uffizi. I walked twice but it’s a good trek and none of the roads go straight. It took a long time, asking directions several times. However, I enjoyed walking by all of the tiny markets, bakeries, and stores in the neighborhoods.
