My friend and I had a pleasant stay at Mauro's place. He was very kind enough to explain valuable information about Firenze upon our arrival and also replied to my frequent inquiry thru messages. The interior of the place was very classic and cozy, so was unique for us to experience Italian style of house.
It is not far from the historical areas and S.M.N station, around 10-15 min walk. However if you have big luggages, would recommend to take taxi, because we had big ones and were exhausted taking those on foot when we arrived. ^^
