Mary and Gio were great hosts and their home was in a great location in the center of Florence. The apartment is a very authentic older styled Florence home which was great for a tourist experience, when you are not spending much time in the room. Our only complaints came mainly with the neighbors. A couple across the hall slammed doors/screamed/fought from 1am to almost 5am for 3 out of our 5 nights there. Although this is mainly out of the hosts control we thought it should be mentioned.
