Julio met my wife and kids and let them into the apartment early and on short notice when I fell ill and had to be admitted to a nearby hospital on our way into Florence. He also called the hospital for my wife to check up on my condition since she did not speak Italian. We were very appreciative of their help in our time of need.
The apartment matched our expectation from the pictures and description on the web. It is very large and filled with modern, comfortable furnishings. The living room has a large comfortable sofa with two matching chairs. Great for stretching out and relaxing after a day of walking around. Good sized kitchen and bath. Two very nice bedrooms at opposite ends of the apartment. Very quiet location, but only a block away from the train station and 10 min walk to the main tourist areas. Lots of stairs to climb to get to the apartment.
