Sometimes in life you feel at home because of a place, and sometimes because of a person/s. But in our stay at Marco´s place, we had both. From the very first moment we were made to feel at home by Marco´s true welcoming friendliness and willingness to help make our stay as comfortable and pleasant and homely as possible. And from the very first moment we fell in love with the place. The apartment was really welcoming, homely, warm at heart and really nice. We had all the facilities we needed during our stay. In fact one or two things we asked for, Marco was more than happy to provide. We really felt at home. The bottle of Chianti he gifted us really made our meals in the apartment even more special. Needless to say it was superb. The location was excellent, bus stop only meters away, Porta Romana less than 100m away and the cozy apartment within the old city walls, just 10-15 minutes on foot from the heart of Florence, Ponte Vecchio, etc. The street is full of nice shops and atelliers, and there is a small Carrefour Express supermarket accross the street plusother minimarkets, bakery, meatshops, some cafes and restaurants. On our departure day Marco was so kind as to let us stay a few hours more than agreed as our bus left Florence station at 3pm. All in all, an wonderful experience. Thank you Marco for making it so. Grazie Mile. Muito Obrigado. Muchas Gracias. (Marco is a true polyglot)
(Spanish) Para no repetirlo todo, solo decir que fue una experiencia magnífica. Tanto Marco como la casa eran de lo mejor. Nos gustó muchísima la estancia. Muy bien situada la casa, con todo loque uno puede necesitar, y más. La recomendaré a mis amigos,desde luego.
