Carmine was very accommodating and gave suggestions for things to do in Florence. The room is located centrally directly above the San Lorenzo market. During the day this market is really great but at night it was very hard to sleep as the cleaning machines start work around 9pm and are extremely loud and clean until very early in the morning. Another thing, the apartment is more of a hostel than just a shared apartment with Carmine. There were 4 rooms total and all were occupied by other guests. Otherwise this is a very convenient room.
