I go to Florence every chance I have to study art history, italian and photography and have a spectacular time always. Part of why I have such an amazing time is because I always stay at CASA MIA. The apartment in itself is Florence, combining art, pieces of marble statues used for a sink and a bathtub, not to mention the amazing view of Santa Croce from the kitchen window. The apartment is minutes away from all the important museums, pallazzi and spots of centro storico, while it provides a "local" living experience. Remo is available at all times and hours and drive for 1.5 hours on a Friday afternoon to come and fix a small piece of the stove vent. He is an amazing host and will make you feel at home in whichever way he can. I feel at home in his house every time and highly recommend you to experience it for yourself.
