My boyfriend and I stayed for 2 nights at Paolo's place in Firenze. He is a lovely host, providing breakfast/coffee and many suggestions for activities and outings.
The location of this 2 bedroom apartment is great, close to the train station and a good place to stay for those exploring the city all day.
As previous guest had noted, there is current construction on Paolo's street- however we did not notice any noise during our stay in the first floor room.
