Amazing Location

The location couldn’t be better! Everything Florence has to offer is easy walking distance from this lovely flat. We loved being so close to so much history and culture. The flat was clean and comfortable. A couple things to note. The stairs leading to it are steep and potentially slippery. This is a historic building, wonderfully updated but still has some old world features. Also, be sure to pay the required city tax in advance or you could find yourself locked outside in the rain.

Trip of a Lifetime

My family and I stayed for three nights and found the apartment to be very comfortable. The beds were very cozy and the shower was amazing. We especially appreciated the proximity to major attractions and found the noise level from the street was not a problem. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

History alive in Florence

The best location. Historical apartment. Hosts excellent on communication. It could have used updates. It smelled a little musty. Small things like dish soap to clean used dishes would be helpful.

Perfect location, great hospitality

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the Tower Apartment. The stairs are steep but even though I have knee issues I managed just fine. The location is perfect and was a great base for visiting Florence. There was a grocery store within a few blocks and restaurants and cafes very close by. The Wifi worked well and the shower was wonderful. We would stay there again.

Perfect location. Few minutes walk to most of the sights. Cafes and shopping nearby.

We had a great visit. Overall the apartment was wonderful and Stefania and her group were very informative and helpful. Word of warning though, the stairs are steep and it was a bit of a challenge handling our suitcases. That said, highly recommend!!

Great location

Apartment has a good location, it is within walking distance from train station and major attractions. I was able to turn on the lights for the building stairs from the 1st floor, but I was not able to do so from the apartment door so getting out of the building at night we had to use our phone lights. Definitely will stay again.

A week in Florence

The host, intermediary and owner very quick to respond to any concerns. Wish we had just a tad more info about using different things in the apartment. All attractions were within walking distance. There is a midnight noise curfew for music, none for revelers, which could be a challenge for some because it is so close to all the action.

Cozy apartment right in the center of Florence.

My family, 2 adults and 2 teenagers had a wonderful time in the Florence Tower Apartment. The location was great for walking to all the sights, restaurants and train station. Stefania and Maria gave us nice recommendations on local sites and restaurants. The apartment was well furnished and clean. There is some late night street noise but we used ear plugs and were fine.

Comfortable apartment in the heart of Florence

Our family of five loved this apartment! Very comfortable and charming. Stefania was so easy to work with. The location couldn't have been better, pretty quiet and central to all the sights. Pros: Comfortable and clean; easy walk from train station; easy communication with owner and assistant. Cons: Steps are steep and might be hard for some people; grocery market was hard to find.

Florence Vacation

I’ll start by saying the location is AMAZING! We loved the ease with which we could go anywhere. It made staying in Florence fantastic. Here are some helpful hints: Be careful climbing the steep stairs. Bring some toilet paper as we did. The refreshing shower and couch encourages one to begin the day promptly. Watch out for uneven surfaces. Overall we had a wonderful stay and look forward to going back some time!!

Delightful and wonderful location!

Very accommodating and very comfortable stay! We especially enjoyed picking up groceries from nearby market and preparing a home cooked meal. Loved the "Bar" just around the corner serving delicious hot chocolate. Close to museums, shops and many Fiorenze sites. We could not access GPS with in the city limits so important you locate on local map before driving into city. Parking garage was also convenient. Wish we had time to visit the owner's business but time passed too quickly.

Charming Florence apartment!

Adorable and homey apartment a very short walking distance from many major points of interest. Clean space and friendly, helpful host with great tips on getting the best gelato. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My only advice to other travelers is to pack lightly. The stairs, as they are in many places of Italy, are very steep. Otherwise a perfect spot to make you feel like you live there.

The Heart of Florence

Our family of four used the apartment as the base for all our activities. We had plenty of space, the washer was very handy, and the beds and air conditioning were fantastic after all the walking we did. Check in was very easy, and Stephania was accommodating as our arrival time changed. We were given recommendations to restaurants and the supermarket. Everything was very close - the Duomo, Uffizzi, Accademia Gallery, Ponte Vecchio - amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better place!!

A very charming suite in the very heart of Florence.

You will not find a better location for seeing all the well-known sites. 2 blocks from Ponte Vecchio, 20 steps from Nuevo Mercado and around the corner from Piazza Della Signoria. Small food shop and ATM also very close. We loved it but the stairs are not suitable for someone who has difficulty walking. Be sure to try the pop up streetside eatery that will appear every evening outside your door. A very nicely appointed unit!

Unbelievable Location

This property is clean and easy to enjoy. There is a pretty steep staircase from the street to the front door but you get used to it. We received excellent recommendations for restaurants etc. Above all, the location is the stand out feature of this apartment. Orsanmichele is 20 metres away. The Piazza della Signoria is 80 metres away. The Ponte Vecchio is a short walk away. I would definitely stay in this apartment again.

Awesome apartment near the heart of everything.

The apartment is awesome and is exactly as described on the website and it is in the heart of the action near the Duomo, Academia Galleria and Ufizzi museums. Excellent restaurants are nearby. The beds are very comfortable, all linens and sufficient bath towels of excellent quality were provided. The master bedroom faces the street so you will hear some of the street noise until the city slows down for the night. The other bedroom does not face the street so it is quiet throughout the night. The bathroom has plenty hot running water and is clean. Kitchen is nice and fully stocked with cooking supplies. Our host/greeter was very nice and knowledgeable and gave us great tips about the area, grocery store and restaurant recommendations. Our family enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this apartment to others.
