Beautiful apartment and absolutely charming and helpful host. It was blazing hot while we visited Florence and the apartment was such a comfortable stay to finish off the day. A wonderfully decorated and artful space to rest, relax and unwind.
This well appointed apartment has everything that you could possibly need for either a short stay or like us a stay of over two months. It is centrally located and is exactly as described. Massimo couldn’t be any more delightful and it was a pleasure staying in his condo. Part of the reason that we had such a lovely time is because of this condo.
We spent a week in this apartment - and would happily have stayed longer. It is beautifully furnished with a balcony and blind - perfect for sitting out in the evening sunshine. Massimo was a perfect host - he met us on arrival, check in was simple, everything was clean. It is a short walk of around 20 minutes to the very centre of town/Duomo. We would stay again if we return to Florence. Richard and Angela
Staying at Massimo’s apartment really contributed to our enjoyment of Florence. It is a short walk to the center of the city, away from the bustling crowds. The apartment is beautifully appointed, with interesting books and art; so very Florentine. The bed was deliciously comfortable. Massimo is a wealth of helpful information about where to go and what to do in Florence He is a helpful and gracious host.

Not what we thought we were getting!
This rental is NOT in Centro Storico as advertised. It is too far to walk from the train station and even a walk to Centro is at least 25 minutes. There is some bus transportation but our host knew nothing about it and simply suggested that we walk. I had had a fall at our our previous stop and had limited mobility and this was not the place we had expected. I must add that the apartment itself is lovely and is in a quiet location. So quiet that the horses pulling the carts in town stay nearby.
However I was surprised to find the fridge full of food including half used food. Then I discovered that the closet held clothes that belonged to our host. The dresser drawers in the bedroom where full of his personal clothing as well. It just did not feel right to us. We had just come from a ten star VRBO in Rome that was beyond perfect. We never felt comfortable here. However our host was there for us when we had to go to the police as my husband had been pickpocketed. We had received no instructions as to what to do with the garbage ( the outdoor bins required a key which we did not have and the host never replied to my email/text ) so we had to leave it inside the apartment when we left.
Another concern was the lack of places to eat ( there were only two ), to purchase a coffee and croissant in the morning, it was very far from everything.
I have never given such a low review before and in all honesty the host is a lovely individual and his home is wonderful but it just was not for us. Perhaps I should have read between the lines more. I certainly questioned the lack of recent reviews and accepted his reply. It is not easy for me to be so brutally honest but I have to tell the truth. If you are a healthy long distance walker and don't mind someone else's things around you then this is the place for you.
Appartement parfait et bien situé pour découvrir Florence ! Et que dire du stationnement intérieur, tellement pratique !
Massimo, le propriétaire, nous a accueilli avec gentillesse et nous a donné de précieux conseils…
Petit problème avec le wifi résolu rapidement.
Merci Massimo !
Florence experienced very high temp. up to 40 C. and that meant a long walk in heat to the tram. going to the train station and the old Florence. You have to walk in Florence. The apartment was nice, well decorated and comfortable. It
served our purpose well and there was a supermarket near by. but not much else.
Nous avons passé une semaine très agréable dans le logement. Massimo nous a accueilli avec une grande gentillesse et nous a renseigné très précisément. L'appartement est très chaleureux, propre, bien décoré et équipé de tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin, comme chez nous! Il est bien situé : on peut y garer la voiture, puis se déplacer à pieds (15-20 minutes pour arriver dans le centre de Florence, ou à la gare) ou bien avec les transports en commun. Le tram pour l'aereoport passe pas loin. Le grand Parc des Cascine est à 5 minutes, pour balades ou jogging. Nous avons dit à Massimo que nous reviendrons !
Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes und sauberes Appartement¡ sehr praktischer Parkplatz in der Tiefgarage, von der man mit dem Aufzug schnell direkt zum Appartement kommt¡ hilfsbereiter, netter Vermieter¡ 30 Minuten Fußweg ins Zentrum, 10 Minuten Fußweg zur Haltestelle vom Elektrobus ins Zentrum.
Un appartement situé à 300m de centre historique de Florence. Un appartement de luxe, tout confort, il ne manquait rien, une place de parking dans le garage de l'immeuble à coté de l'ascenseur. Et un propriétaire adorable.
Nous avons passé une excellente semaine à Florence grâce à l’appartement cocooning pour le repos du soir.Massimo est un hôte très serviable,il nous a beaucoup aidé après un gros problème automobile.je recommande vivement cet appartement.merci Massimo.
Excellente adresse proche du centre historique de Florence
L'appartement de Massimo est trés agréable, au calme et parfaitement équipé. La literie est excellente.
Massimo nous a extrémement bien renseigné par rapport à ce que nous voulions visiter et nous a promulgué d'excellents conseils sur les transports et restaurants.
Le garage mis à disposition nous a permis de venir avec notre voiture et découvrir la Toscane inaccessible sans voiture : Val d'orcia, Sienne...
La proximité de la gare principale permet aussi de découvrir en train Pise et Luccas, ville médievalle charmante et peu connue
Massimo parle très bien le français, ce qui est un plus pour échanger.
Adresse fortement recommandée
Sehr nette kommunikation mit Massimo, der uns auch tolle Tipps und Informationen gegeben gat. Die Unterkunft ist fußläufig vom Bahnhof erreichbar. Die küche ist gut ausgestattet und die Betten sehr bequem und dank der Fliegengitter ist schlafen bei offenem Fenster problemlos. Rundum schön und gerne wieder :-)
Sehr freundlicher Vermieter und eine toll ausgestattete Wohnung. In der Küche war alles da, was wir brauchten. Der Vermieter hatte sogar schon einige Lebensmittel für uns bereit gelegt.
Belle découverte de FLORENCE avec ses musées et bâtiments tous plus beaux les uns que les autres.
Beaucoup de monde mais dans l'ensemble bonne organisation.
L'appartement était confortable et aménagé avec beaucoup de goût. Massimo nous a fort bien accueillis. Il laisse beaucoup de choses à disposition.
Nous recommandons cet appartement.
Un appartement chaleureux et confortable à Florence
Tout d'abord l'emplacement parking gratuit est parfait et permet de laisser la voiture durant tout le séjour sans souci. L'accueil par Massimo est très précis, ponctuel, très aimable et les informations sont très complètes. L'appartement, récent, situé à 20-25mn à pieds de l'hypercentre est très confortable et douillet. Le bus 17 nous amène directement à La Galleria Dell' Academia. C'est un bonheur d'y retourner le soir après une journée de visite! Même en hiver le bonus balcon est à signaler pour boire un thé en rentrant! Un logement dans lequel on a envie de revenir pour un prochain week end à Florence! Merci pour l'accueil!
Appartement propre, parfait pour visiter Florence et les alentours. Bon accueil et informations du propriétaire. Je conseille cette location pour une famille de 4 personnes. Le plus une place de parking.
Massimo foi um excelente anfitrião, esperando até fora do horário para o check in, a localização do imóvel é excelente , com supermercado, restaurantes próximos e principalmente ter uma vaga na garagem à disposição na Europa é algo raro. No primeiro dia recomendo fazer os passeios a pé, o apartamento fica próximo do centro histórico cerca de 20 minutos e nos outros dias alugar um carro e explorar a Toscana( San Gimignanio, Volterra, Lucca, Pisa … ) .
We had a wonderful stay in Florence and owe that in large parts to Massimo and his beautiful apartment. Massimo always responded quickly to any questions we had in advance and even understanding as our flight to Florence was cancelled and we spontaneously arrived a day late. He picked us up from the Tram station and accompanied us to the apartment, already telling us a lot of useful information about Florence on the way. The apartment itself is very nicely furnished and leaves nobody's wishes unfulfilled. The city center is easily reachable on foot and different supermarkets are available in close proximity as well. It is the perfect place to get to know Florence and to really feel like living in the city. We highly recommend Massimo's apartment. Thank you, Massimo and best wishes!
Wir hatten eine tolle zentrale Wohnung die uns als Start für viele Ausflüge und Besichtigungen supe
"Ankommen und wohlfühlen" so war es für uns auf jeden Fall. Massimo unser Vermieter hatte neben der normalen Einweisung noch viele Tips für Florenz und Umgebung parat die sehr wichtig waren für einen guten Start.
Wir können die Wohnung nur empfehlen.
Massimo hat uns vor der Wohnung empfangen und uns alles gezeigt. Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und liebevoll eingerichtet. Wir bekamen viele interessante Insidertipps zum Essen und Ausgehen in Florenz und eine Flasche Wein bei der Ankunft. Der Vermieter ist jederzeit zu erreichen und gerne bereit bei Fragen zu helfen. Zu Fuß etwa 20 bis 30 Minuten zum Zentrum die Tram fährt in der Nähe der Wohnung. Gerne wieder!
