The address was very simple to find, and we walked easily from the train station (head to the Duomo and turn right!) Luca met us there, and gave us a great rundown of the area and recommendations for restaurants and gelateria (about half of which we tried, and all were excellent - bistecca alla Fiorentina is an absolute must). He was very welcoming and full of knowledge about Florence.

The apartment is exactly as advertised, huge and beautifully furnished. The location couldn't possibly be more central (the campanile of the Duomo is visible from one window), with all the major sights of the city within an easy walk. It should be noted that the central location means there is a bit of street noise, but we found that it was easy to forget about quickly. The positive of that was that it was fun to open the windows and watch the world go by under your nose.

As a side note, we had an issue with utilities that turned out to be city-wide, but when we messaged Luca about it quite late (thinking it was a problem in the apartment), he replied quickly with good humour and useful info - excellent care!
