We sincerely thank you for taking the time to share your positive feedback. It is a true pleasure to know that all met your expectations so exceptionally. Thank you for being exemplary guests and for recommending our property. We look forward to hosting you again in the future.
We enjoyed our stay immensely. The location was spectacular and the host recommendations were very helpful. Theonly lacking thing was a freezer for ice since the weather was extremely hot (between 97-100 F) every day we were there.

It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and we already look forward to welcoming you back for another unforgettable stay in Florence!
Great apartment with plenty of space. Access to laundry was fantastic and so helpful with two kids. The listing doesn't lie regarding to proximity to the Duomo. It was easy to get everywhere you would want to go with walking and even though the evenings were busy outside, the windows were great at blocking out the noise so it didn't disturb any sleep. Honestly, this was a beautiful property and it was just what we needed for our visit.

Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are delighted to hear that the apartment's space and laundry setup made traveling with your kids so much easier.
It’s great to know that you enjoyed being so close to the Duomo and that the soundproofing kept the apartment quiet for a good night's sleep. Hosting your family was a true pleasure, and we’d love to welcome you all back to Florence anytime!
The apartment is in a great location - right next to the duomo. It is spacious and clean. It is also surprisingly quiet given that it is right off a very busy street, especially the bedroom in the back. The air conditioning was great. Laundry is shared with other units, but there is both a washer and dryer. Communication with the hosts was easy and straightforward.Overall, a great place!

The room are very clean, most of kitchenette are there except freezer. Very interesting building, we love it! I miss looking out the window having coffee in the morning watching the busy street next to the DuomoLaundry, washer and dryer perfect. We were told there is no dryer in Italy, we didn’t have one in Venice. Having a dryer and all the detergents. Laundry basket right there is a plus!Air conditioner is great.Francesca is very responsive with our needs. Thank you Francesca for accommodating us for late check out we wouldn’t know what to do with 5 luggages having a later train to catch.Thanks again

We are so glad you loved the unique character of the building and that morning coffee routine with a view of the vibrant streets near the Duomo. That is truly one of the best ways to experience Florence!

Hosting you was an absolute pleasure, and we would love to welcome you back anytime on your next trip to Italy!

Locate in a very central location in Florence. Everything you need is a stones away. There was more than enough space for 4-6 guests although it was just 2 of us.

Very beautiful apartment in the heart of Florence. Very quiet and well furnished. Nice place to escape the heat of the city. Air fresheners a little overpowering, but we were forewarned.

Thank you for your lovely review! We are so pleased to hear that you found our apartment beautiful and enjoyed its location in the heart of Florence. We're also glad you found it quiet and well-furnished, and a nice retreat from the city's heat.
It was a pleasure to host you, and we hope you had a wonderful time exploring Florence!
Excellent central location for walking the central city sites, stores and restaurants. Roomy apartment with old building charm. Not a cookie cutter mass produced vacation rental. Communication was outstanding. They sent answers to questions you hadn't even asked yet but were planning to ask. Check in couldn't be easier.

Thank you for your excellent review!
We're especially happy to read that you appreciated the roomy space and the unique charm of our historic building, feeling it's not a "cookie cutter" rental. It's wonderful to know our communication was outstanding and that check-in was so easy for you.
We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Florence again soon!
The location is excellent - literally steps away from the Duomo, Baptistry, etc. Very safe area and close to lots of restaurants/shops/gelato, etc. 8 minute walk to train station. Communication before arrival was good (whatsapp) and we were given the door code and instructions on getting the unit key from a lockbox inside. The air conditioning is nice and strong - needed since it was really hot when we were there. One unit dripped water when on (and there was a laminated sign asking to leave a pan/bucket underneath so as not to damage the hardwood floors). The laundry was not in the unit, but on our floor (not clear from the listing), but we did multiple loads two different days and nobody else was ever using it. The kitchenette is really small, but otherwise the layout is spacious. They had books by Rick Steves - Italy, Florence, and Florence pocket guidebook, which was handy. There was a small TV, which would not turn on (probably dead battery remotes) but we didn't bring it up since we didn't really want to watch TV anyway. The address is in the pedestrian only zone, which was nice, only issue was the 3 times I tried to get a taxi using appTaxi, the ride request was never accepted (not sure if that was why). Overall would stay here again.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed and helpful review! We are delighted that you loved our unbeatable location right by the Duomo, the strong air conditioning, and our Rick Steves guidebooks. :)
We also really appreciate your honest feedback. The technician finally found the problem and fixed the dripping AC unit (the pipe for the condensation inside the wall had problems so we had to open up everything). We also of course replaced the TV remote batteries thanks to your hint.
It was a true pleasure hosting you, and we would love to welcome you back to Florence anytime!
The name says it all - a stones throw from the Duomo. The location could not be better, the ambience of the square puts you in the heart of Florence. The home is comfortable and nicely appointed. We would recommend and stay again. Adélaïde & Francesca Newtopique are wonderful hosts and responsive to requests in a timely manner. Have a wonderful stay in Florence. Linda

Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad the location truly lived up to its name.
We appreciate you recommending us and the possibility of another stay! We hope to welcome you again soon :)
We loved our stay “a stones throw from the Duomo”. We were worried about one of the reviews mentioning loud noise. There was some noise from the street but we had no problem sleeping. The AC kept us cool, the location was ideal, the space itself was great 3 baths, two bedrooms. One of the beds was better than the other, our group of 4 was very comfortable. Would stay again if every in Florence.

The location could not have been better. You can see the beautiful Duomo from your window! It was very central and every thing we wanted to see and do was no more than 5-15 minutes away by foot. Adelaide & Francesca were very responsive and they accommodated our request to check in an hour earlier, which was very helpful for us. The apartment gave you the experience of real Florence. The apartment was clean. The air conditioning worked perfectly, there is a communal washer and dryer that was easy to use and was available when we needed.At night, there was a musician playing in piazza, which really made it feel very romantic. We loved our stay here and would not hesitate to stay here again.
