We had a lovely stay at Marco's place! Throughout the whole planning process, he was very responsive, even with the time difference. His place is very spacious, a nice relief for us after a small room in Rome for a week. It actually felt bigger than what the pictures convey. It's very close to the Duomo and the Accademia, and made for a great HQ for our time in Florence. It's above a lovely bar that we had breakfast at every morning. We didn't expect there to be a theater right across the street, and ended up having a great night going to a show there. This place is a great spot! We are so glad we stayed here.
