I cannot say enough about how amazing Max was as a host or his apartment. The views of Duomo from the apartment are fantastic and the apartment is extremely functional and comfortable, and walking distance to all key monuments and shopping areas. Max left us a really nice welcome basket and was extremely helpful when we had flight issues on the check-in day and he was extremely helpful in calling us a cab at check-out time. Nothing was too much for Max, he left us an Apple iPad which contained recommendations for the best pizza, pasta, gelato, etc in Florence. On one of the days we were out in Florence and wanted Gelato but forgot to check his recommendation so he texted it to us. We were thoroughly spoilt during our stay at Max's. When we come back to Florence, Max's place is the only place we would consider staying in.
