First of all communication with David was very easy. His place is very charming, with all kinds of books and lovely CDs. Apartment was clean, all the amenities were there. The flat is not in the very centre of Florence but definitely within a walking distance (15mins ) to the old town. Thanks to that the neighbourhood is peaceful enough to find some local cafes and restaurants and not to be bothered by any noise off the street. Even a proper supermarket could be found within a 5 min walk.
I have to admit that at David’s place I felt at home. Therefore I strongly recommend staying at his place.
