Apartment was exactly as pictured and described! Marina maintained great communication as soon as I reserved her apartment, and was very flexible when I needed to change my arrival time in Florence. Marco was there to meet me and my mother promptly, and he took the time to show us the apartment and to give us recommendations on places to eat around the area. The apartment is literally a stone's throw from the Santa Maria Novella train station, the Mercato Centrale (where Marco recommended us to try the lampredotto sandwich), and all the major attractions. I was especially happy to see a gelateria across the street.
