Mauro was a great host, who was waiting on the street to meet us when we arrived, and even left us a bottle of champagne because we had told him we were coming for our anniversary. He gave us a city map and spent time marking some of his favorite spots, and had additional suggestions for great food and interesting things to do. The apartment itself is close enough to the center to walk back and forth easily, but far enough away we could sleep peacefully given the occasionally crazy night-life of Florence. Another highlight of the flat is the huge amount of closet space in the bedroom. The kitchen is also well-equipped, and there are two supermarkets close by where you can fill the cupboards.
