We did not meet Jacopo but we were greeted by his mother who brought us up to the apartment where Jacopo's father Roberto checked us in. Roberto is incredibly sweet and gave us a good history on the home as well as some info for the local area/sights. My husband and I both loved our stay here. Very spacious and even a small but functional kitchen if you wanted to prepare some easy meals. Would definitely stay here again as well as recommend. We were able to walk to and from the train station as well as to all the attractions of Florence.
