Claudio was very communicative and knowledgable of the area. The flat was European standard, so if you're use to American standards better make an adjustment. The flat was 3 min walk to the tram station and very delicious bakery. Parking was a bit hard to find within the blue lines and then a 6 min walk to the parking meter to pay for the parking. Nice large fridge for groceries with a grocery market 10 min driving. There is a beautiful park 8 min walk away. The team takes you to the central train station which is then. 10- 15 min walk to the duomo or museum with David. Remember you can only drive to Florence during specific times so Claudio's flat was as close as you can get to the city with a car and then taking public transportation in.
