The apartment is just as advertised, the room is nice and simple, lots of books available to read up on Florence and get some local tips. Included a powerful fan which was helpful for the hot nights. The host was kind and told us a bit about what we could do around the city. At first communication with the host was a bit difficult but this was resolved. Be prepared for sharing a small bathroom with other guests (as described). Otherwise it was a nice apartment and I would recommend it if you're on a budget.
