We had a lovely stay at Daniele and Clara's. As per other's reviews, Daniele and Clara run the apartment like professionals with multiple rooms being rented out and a central kitchen area. The room was modern and clean and had all the comforts one needs -- a good bed, quiet, temperature control (heating + air conditioning), clean spacious bathroom with towels and face washers. The central kitchen area was bustling when we dropped our bags off around 9:30am on our morning of arrival, but was otherwise fairly quiet at most other times we were there.

Having dropped our bags off quite early before check-in, Daniele recommended us a place for breakfast and a few attractions to visit prior to check-in. When we got back Daniele sat down with us for further orientation penning in places we might like to visit on a map.

Daniele also offers various (paid extra) activities on days he's available. We opted to go on a day tour of the country-side towns with a visit to the winery at the end. Daniele personally drove us around the countryside for the entire day sharing his local knowledge and history of the area, which was most enjoyable. We also opted to go with Daniele's (paid extra) breakfast's each morning as a quick and convenient way to have some food before heading off.

All in all we had a great time and would love to stay at Daniele's next time we visit Florence.

PS. Daniele speaks English quite well, so if you haven't quite got your head around Italian yet, you'll be fine.
