My family (ages 12-45) stayed here 5 days over Christmas 2011. Listing was accurate. Views are as shown- and completely amazing-- and which were lovely to have in the cold of winter. Comfortable amenities, nice to have a washer in- house. Two bathrooms was really a plus. Owners were extremely helpful and restaurant recommendations were spot on. You will not find a better location, local sights are all within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend to others-- just know that having a beautiful view means you have many steps to climb to get there. It was worth it! Thank you for making our Christmas holiday perfect.

A Florence Find!

We stayed in 3 apartments in Italy during our one-month visit this fall--Rome, Florence and Venice. All were within the price range of this gem in Florence, but Casa DelCo far exceeded the other 2 apartments in every respect. First, the owners Martina and Simone could not have been better! This started from the first email that I sent and lasted throughout the whole stay. While other potential apartment owners were of no help regarding parking a car, they said from the first that they would handle it--and they did! They were both waiting for us on a Sunday afternoon, to help us park our rental car (no easy feat in Florence). While Martina showed our friends how to use features in the apartment, Simone accompanied us to free parking at the Piazzale Michelangelo some distance away, and then walked us back to the apartment until Martina had a chance to pick us up in her car. What better service could we want? They also arranged for a taxi to come pick us up when we were leaving to go back to our car. They were very accessible by phone, email and texting. The apartment is simply lovely and beautifully decorated in a modern style that fits really well with the older feel of its building and Florence generally. Everything was great. We especially liked the roof terrace where we could look across red-tiled roofs to the Duomo, which is kept lit all night long. The kitchen was modern and perfectly stocked with the right utensils, etc. You won't find a better location in Florence! This is especially nice if you want to sightsee, and then come back mid-day to rest or have a bite to eat before heading out again later in the day. We unhesitatingly recommend this apartment as THE place to stay in Florence, and we found it by luck on VRBO!

My family of 4 stayed in Casa Delco for 5 days in June of 2011. This was the best place we stayed during our 2 week trip of Italy. This is possibly the best apartment I have rented using VRBO over the past 6 years!! Everything was clean and having the washing machine, the clothes line and clothes pins, the hair dryer, the well equipped kitchen and the basic cooking supplies all helped to make traveling in a foreign country so much easier. This location is fabulous. Florence really is a city made for walking; you can get to the Duomo in minutes, there are several small grocery stores or fruit markets, etc within a 3 to 5 minute walk. One thing to note, not everyone speaks English. I think sometimes we assume most people in "tourist" areas all speak English, but in many of the small stores or the grocery stores, they did not. With that said, we did fine with the little French we did know and most people were patient with us. Also to add, Simone was wonderful during the planning of our trip. He was helpful, curteous, very accomodating upon our departure; I couldn't have asked for more. One of our favorite gelato places was down by Pont Vecchio. It was on the right hand side across the street from the bridge just a little before you get to the bridge. I am sorry I don't remember the name, but you just walk up to the counter/window to order your gelato and it was fabulous. Grom is the very famous Gelateria, and very close to the apartment, but we didn't think it was worth the wait in line. The most fun we had was simply wandering around Florence and "getting lost" down all the different side streets and the best part is all you have to do is look up to find the Duomo and then you can find your way home. Also we felt very safe in the area around the apartment. It was a great trip and great place to stay.

We arrived in July 2011. There were 4 adults (2 married couples). Once we got over the fact of how many steps we had to climb to get to the apt - it was lovely !!!!.The bedrooms were clean and had enough room to walk around in. Both bathrooms were modern and very clean. There is a full size coffee maker YES !!!!! as most places we stay at have the one cupper size.The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and the owners left us a bottle of their wine. The apt was delightful and the owners were informative and very helpful. The location was great - it is situated on a quaint street leading right to a piazza full of restaurants and entertainment. It is 15 -20 walk to many toruist areas and a huge flea market. All kinds of quaint chocolate shops,grocery store and the best gelato ever !!!! I would highly recommend the apt . robin colautti LaSalle Ont Canada

We loved everything about our time in Florence. The apartment was excellent, the location was perfect and the view from the roof top terrace was a real bonus! Our family of three teenagers loved the layout and decor of the apartment. The loft is definitely not child friendly without any railing.

TERRIFIC APARTMENT

Could not have asked for a better apartment with such a fabulous location. We were only there for 4 days in July on our treck through Italy and Spain, But we agreed we would have loved to stay longer. Everything about the apartment was just as described...There are a few stairs to climb...just made us thirsty after a day of touring. Great restaurants and sites...all within walking distance. Fabulous Gelato at RIVA RENO just down the street. and IL LATINA for the best Bistecca Fiorentina in Florence. Would certainly stay again at Casadelco... Thank Simone 4 from Ontario,Canada

We stayed here for the month of February while taking language and art classes. We were delighted with the apartment and couldn't have been happier. It was everything it claimed to be - clean, comfortable, well-equipped, with great looking furnishings and touches. The location is extraordinary - just steps to all the main sights, galleries, shopping, restaurants etc. The owners, Simone and Martina, couldn't have been kinder. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them. Highly, highly recommended for anyone visiting Florence for a long or short stay.

We loved the apartment and hope to return! The location is ideal! The photos accurately reflect what the apartment looks like! It was cold when we were there, so really didn't get to use the deck, but what a view from there! We would highly recommend this apartment even with the 70+ steps!

My husband and I as well as another couple enjoyed our stay in this beautiful apartment. The apartment is even more beautiful than the photos. The owners are was very responsive and hospitable. We were not sure the exact time of our arrival and they were happy to work around our schedule. The location is fabulous as you are within walking distance to all the sites. I wish we could've stayed longer and hope we can come visit again soon.
