Marco was an absolute gem of a host. My husband and I were in Italy for our honeymoon and Marco went out of his way to make our stay in Florence special for us. He made sure we had everything we needed, from city maps and information about the sights to eating recommendations. I would highly recommend taking him up on his offer of a packed lunch from his family's restaurant - it was absolutely delicious!
The room is cozy, but had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and it wasn't at all difficult to get into the city center. I would highly recommend staying at Marco's place.
