I highly recommend staying at matteo’s place. The room comes with everything you need and holds a stunning view over the city of florence. The neighborhood of the apartment is really charming and convenient and within 10 minutes you are right in the city center. I stayed with Matteo for 2 weeks however our schedules were so overlapping we hardly saw each other- never the less communication was easy and i immediately felt welcome and at home at his place. Florence is a beautiful city which i will sure visit again! If you want to experience the city for a weekend or longer, Matteo’s apartment is a perfect location to explore from. thank you Matteo!
