The host was so accommodating...from providing directions and information about the train prior to arriving in Florence to meeting us on sight and orienting us in person to the place we were staying. He provided information about local eateries and interest points and provided wine and biscuits as a host gift during our stay. The place was the perfect size for four of us but it definitely can sleep 6 comfortably if needed. It was very clean and had a washer for doing laundry. Conveniently located near many sites that were a short walking distance. Giacomo even met us when we departed and helped carry our luggage brought us departing gifts (key chains and my mom a coin purse) and contacted a taxis to take us to the train station. We left behind our camera battery and charger and he graciously sent it back to us in the US. I highly recommend staying here and hope to return one day.
