Alberto is a great host. His advice and knowledge of the city made it easy for my daughter and I to make decisions on parking our car, walking to all the sights and eating in amazing restaurants. His place is in the most wonderful location. Just as his pictures shows, if you open the shutters on the big windows, you can't help but be in awe of the Duomo right in front of you, so close, you can almost touch it! The apartment itself gives you an authentic Italian experience and makes you feel like a local. It's big, spacious and homy. The bathroom with its modern fixtures (and a bidet) features Florence blue mosaic tile. We loved this place so much and would come back in a heartbeat.
