Mario’s place is well located for a good experience in Florence. Ground floor, extremely quiet in the night, shutters for the light so you can sleep in late, mosquito nets fixed on the windows (very much needed, I read hundreds of Airbnb reviews about the mosquito problems at night in Florence everywhere), safe neighborhood, 2 min walk to the railway station which takes 10 mins to reach the city. Trains leave hourly so preplan your journey and don’t miss the train.
There was a welcome pie waiting for us baked by Mario’s wife, he came to pick us up at the main SMN station even though he was busy that day, even took me to the nearby grocery store so that I could buy immediately necessary groceries. Very kind host, great cozy apartment and extremely good maps and timetables that he provides you when you check in.
Would definitely stay again
