Simone was a great host and is nice and friendly. I arrived 3 hours later at midnight because our train got stucked in a tunnel. He texted me and asked if I required any help. His apartment is slightly far from the train station if you're walking with big luggages but you could take a bus if it's not too late.

The room is beautiful, spacious, and clean and you have a nice private bathroom all to yourself. The apartment is on the 5th floor and there are no lifts. However, it is manageable and Simone kindly came down to help me carry my heavy luggage up.

Simone also gave us a detailed tour on the map of the places we could go in Florence.
