David's friend, Eugenio was the one who met us at the flat. The place was as described. It was spacious, tidy, had plenty of natural light, and most importantly A/C!! The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and tidy, the kitchen had all the necessities, and even a washer to do some laundry. The building is quiet and in a non-touristy part of Firenze. It was easy enough to walk to the city center but we did end up taking taxis a few times when we ended up on the opposite side of town (which was quite often). There is a bus stop nearby as well and we used the bus when we needed to.

The only downside was the flat is on the 3rd (top) floor of the building with no elevator. Which means there was 4 short flights of stairs. While the stairs weren't horrible, it did make it a little more difficult to haul our massive luggage up. But it was totally doable.
