Mario is an amazing host with an amazing space. He promptly responds to inquiries (including where to buy things/how to get places) and is punctual for check in/out. The apartment is very central, VERY CLEAN, and has a minimalist style. The apartment is at the back of the building so it's quiet. It doesn't get a ton of light which is actually really great for keeping it cool in the heat of summer! It's quite big and two people could stay there very comfortably! It includes all the necessary supplies to make yourself at home for a few days or a few weeks, plus pamphlets/maps recommending tours in the city or the region. Walk out the front door and you are greeted with bakeries, pasta restaurants and pizzerias, gelaterias and a mini grocery store. It's a quick 10 minute walk to the train station or the tram to the airport. And 3 blocks from the Duomo. I worked out of Florence for a few weeks and Mario made me feel welcome the entire time I was there. I would 100% stay here again and again.
