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.

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.

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! Francesca was more than happy to help arrange the late check-out for you so you could enjoy your final hours in the city without worrying about your luggage. Hosting you was an absolute pleasure, and we would love to welcome you back anytime on your next trip to Italy!

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.
