First of all, Maurizio was a wonderful host! He allowed us to check in early and rest since we had heavy backpacks and our train arrived early. He greeted us and gave us helpful information on the bus routes which we utilized many times! His place was very clean and the room was cozy and spacious. His breakfast was very tasty and loved the homemade cappuccinos!
The only thing we were bummed about is the amount of mosquitos and I tried to prevent getting bit but unfortunately ended up leaving with huge bites that are swollen. Also, the listing didn't say there was no air conditioning. I guess we should have asked, but it got pretty hot in the upstairs room and during the day and night you had to keep the window shut to keep mosquitos out, so air didn't circulate and the room didn't cool off very much.
Maurizio has a "no eating in the room" policy and his kitchen is private, so if you're like us and like to bring leftovers home after dinner or bring snacks home from the local grocery store, it made it a bit tricky.

Besides that, we loved our stay in Florence and his place was a great location! It was very close to the bus stop and (if you're a walker) within reasonable walking distance of the duomo and many city shops. There is a cheap lavanderia (laundromat) a 5 min walk away, as well as a nice grocery store. The location is quiet and restful.
