Great BnB!!
First I just want to state that Rita and Richard are GREAT hosts! They respond so quickly when asked any questions. Next the place is just so very nice and feels like a home. Especially after a long day of tours it was so nice to come back to this place and crash. Thank you again Rita & Richard for making Florence very special!

Florence Stay
We loved the apartment. It was spacious, comfortable, beautiful- we cooked in, and went out, and had a very nice time. We did not meet Rita, our hostess, but she was easy to get in touch with and she reached out to make sure we found the apartment and had everything we needed. It was very easy to get there via tram and a bit of walking from Santa Maria Novella train station. Richard met us and competently oriented us to everything from the locks to the appliances, to the local pizzeria, market, corner bar, and supermarket (around the corner- super convenient) and we had interesting conversation with him as well. We had a wonderful long weekend. Thank you!

Lovely apartment in easy walk to downtown Florence
Our flight was delayed and Rita's friend Richard patiently waited for us to arrive and checked us in. He told us everything we needed to know about the apartment and even directed us to a local pizza place that could give us a late takeout. The apartment itself is spacious and comfortable with a nice dining table for 4 and two small balconies that each seat two, a living area, 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms with good showers. The apartment was a comfortable 20 minute walk to the train station or the middle of Florence for me and my 15 year old son but the same walk home was a little long for my 75 year old mother at the end of the day. Kitchen was well equipped and there is a grocery market 1 block away for everything we needed for meals. Rita was very attentive and checked in periodically to make sure we were doing ok. I can absolutely give this apartment a positive recommendation.

Perfecto! Perfecto! Perfecto!
Rita's place was perfect for my family of 6. We received such a warm welcome and the perfect amount of communication throughout our stay. The host was very responsive to all of our needs and we found the place to be ideally located...just on the outskirts. We walked everywhere with no problems. Our group consists of 3 college students, 1 middle schooler, and my wife and I. The grocery store is right around the corner which served us well. Would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Florence.

Apartment was VERY clean, comfortable beds, and well stocked kitchen with all we needed to cook an authentic Italian meal. Rita answered all questions quickly so no complaints about anything.

Very nice apartment. It was cleaned and met our expectations. The tram is not far from the place and they are all types of services in the area. Everything was fine. Good communication with the owner who was available at anytime for our questions. She was very helpful by suggesting restaurants and places we can visit and also she refers other friends for more information. No complain, only instructions for garbage was not given up front so we had to as her what to do.

Nice apartment
A nice apartment. A moderate/long walk to attractions but nice to be outside enjoying a different culture. Owner and host were great - answered all of our questions and gave us recommendations for food/gelato, bank and trams. Were met at the tram and walked to the apartment - this was great after a day of travel. Worked with our schedule for a late check in and what time we could get to Firenze based on a class schedule. Had a small issue with the breaker being off for the electric lighting of the stove and microwave was in the process of being replaced. Grocery store and restaurants were close by. Enjoyed walking in the rain with the umbrellas provided. Appreciated having a washer/dryer combo unit to do a small load of laundry and dry our clothes! Would want to stay closer to the sites next time but would not rule this apartment out.

Spectacularly clean, comfortable and convenient apartment
Two couples comfortably stayed in this exceptionally clean, well equipped and perfectly located apartment. We were warmly greeted by property local manager and made aware of apartment equipment operation (air conditioning, cooking gas, door locks, window shutters, etc). We also had easy, open communication with the owner. All amenities were absolutely as expected, the furnishings were comfortable, the kitchen fully equipped and the two bathrooms were newly updated. The apartment is bright and spacious and offers two dining seating areas as well as two living rooms. Bedrooms were large. Fully air conditioned apartment was most appreciated during the week we stayed. Elevator made for easy transport of luggage in and out. We could not have asked for a better home away from home! Location was a convenient walk down two blocks to the tram that took you right into Piazza Santa Maria Novella and downtown Florence. There was a daily food market right out the door each morning and a lovely grocery just steps around the corner …also a small coffee, tobacco & pastry shop right downstairs. We enjoyed two lovely restaurants recommended by owner within easy walk in neighborhood. You can also walk through lovely neighborhoods to downtown Florence in about 20-30 minutes from this location. It was great to be away from the very crowded downtown area and we felt very safe in the neighborhood! You will not be disappointed if you rent this beautiful apt!

Four days in Florence
Where to start.. first everything was great. The room had all the comforts and amenities of home. It was very clean and everything worked as it should. Sadly we didn’t catch up with Rita however, Richard checked us in. He was very helpful and informative, how to work things in the apartment, where to eat, drink, or just places to go. He even made a dinner reservation for us. Yes I ate that whole steak! Anyway, we really did enjoy our stay in Florence and having a clean safe place to stay made it just a little better. Thanks Rita and Richard.

5 Days in Florence
The four of us enjoyed our stay. Location was not far from the tram to get you to the city center. There was a grocery store and small café just around the corner that we found very convenient. The apartment was well appointed and very clean and comfortable. Richard who I believe is a cohost was incredibly helpful in every way you can imagine. Any time we had questions or even needed help finding a doctor he was on it and offered his assistance at any time. This was crucial on this trip, because two of us became ill during our stay.

Our host, Rita, was exceptional. From the time our reservation was made until our stay was over, Rita was invaluable in making sure our stay an immersion into Italian life. She not only recommended local restaurants but went further to make reservations. SheRita was always available by phone when we had questions. The tram into central Florence is a comfortable 4-5 block walk and takes 10 minutes to get into the city. We plan to return to her.

Stay in Florence
Our time in Florence was very enjoyable. The apartment was very conveniently located near the tram as I getting to the historical section and train station was very easy - 10 minutes. In fact we did take the train to Pisa for a day visit during our stay and it was very easy to do. Often we chose to walk to the Duomo and that is just over a mile away. The apartment was very nice and perfect for two couples, but it can actually accommodate more. Rita, our host, was extremely responsive to any questions or requests. We would definitely be open to a return visit.

Perfect Vacation
Just spent 19 days in amazing Florence. What a fantastic property. Rita was a great host and her home was beautiful. We travelled with friends and it was perfect for two couples. Located about 1.5 miles from town, it was a great 25 min walk each morning. Also, just around the corner, there is a little coffee shop and a great little grocery store that had everything we needed for the entire stay. There are also several local restaurants that Rita recommended that were amazing if you didn’t want to go into town. About 2 blocks from the property is a T1 tram stop. It runs by every 6 minutes and will take you right into town center. I can go on and on about how much fun we had in Florence and how much we enjoyed Rita’s home. I hope we will be lucky enough to return again some day. Thanks Rita.

family reunion
We stayed for 10 weeks and were able to walk everywhere or take the tram to the center of the city. The apartment with 3 king beds worked pretty well and when we needed more space for people who didn't want to share a bed, the two couches came in handy. The kitched is really up to date and the AC worked well, which was really important with the sizzling heat we had. We had a "Rear Window" kind of view from one balcony and on the other side, we had the street view. The grocery store (Penny) and the neighorhood bar were within a block. If we return to Florence, and we probably will, we will hope to be able to stay in the same apartment again.

The Perfect Apartment in the Perfect Location
Our family of 6 (21 years to 76 years of age), all agree I chose the perfect apartment and location for our home in Florence for 23 days. It is a wonderfully furnished and decorated home that has everything you would need to have a comfortable life, including air conditioning and an elevator. It is in a great location which is walking distance for any of our needs, such as the fresh fruit and vegetable stands, the bakery, the coffee bar, Penny Market, gelato, and several eating places. It is walking distance to most of the tourist sites. The train station, Santa Maria Novella, is close by. You can walk there or take a tram there. The train can take you to day outings to some of the other areas you might want to see for a day. We did not need a car. If you do use a car, there is parking. More importantly, I chose the right person, Rita (the owner) to correspond to while planning our trip. Rita has a wealth of information that was very valuable to all of us. Her suggestions, her ideas and her recommended tours turned out to be exceptional for our family. They will always be part of our memory of this amazing trip to Florence. Rita has a man named Richard, who oversees the apartment. He was waiting to welcome us to Rita's home. He saved us a lot of time by showing us around the apartment and showing us how everything works, such as the air conditioning, the TV with so many choices, the washer/dryer, the shades for the windows and other things. He then impressed me by suggesting a walking tour of the area around. My husband declined and I accepted (our kids and grandkids hadn't come yet). We spent about 45 minutes walking to all the places I mentioned earlier. He even showed me how to use the machine to buy tram tickets (1.5 euros for 90 minutes of use). I also appreciated the phone call a couple of days later to see if we had any questions or any problems. I had his phone number to call if we needed his help for anything which we did at the end of our trip. We had him call a taxi to take us to the train station with all of our luggage. We didn't understand the italian of a taped message when we called the cab. We were grateful for Richard's assistance, his caring attitude, his sincere interest in Florence and for his knowledge of history. All six of my family members agree that this is a five star home and five star location for others visiting Florence. When you start planning your trip to Florence, email Rita first.
