Michele was a great host! He was there when we arrived to give us the keys, explain the basics of the apartment and recommend restaurants. I lived in Florence last summer for 5 weeks so I knew the city very well and this area did not disappoint. It is central to EVERYTHING. I am a college student so this apartment was perfect for what we wanted to do: visit the museums, shop, eat and go out. It had all the necessities and is perfect for the price. He also made sure to contact us throughout our stay to make sure everything was good. I also felt very safe as you have to get through 2 doors before even getting to the apartment. Overall great experience, would recommend.
