Nice visit to Mario's place! He kindly picked us up at the bus station and drove us to the apartment. It had everything we needed including guide books. It was really easy to get to Florence (10-15 minutes by train and 20-25 min by bus.) The apartment is very close to the train and bus station! Mario's wife made us a fruit tart and they gave us a bottle of sparkling wine! Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!
