The apartment was beautiful and equipped with everything we needed! It was located within walking distance to so many lovely restaurants and local attractions. We would definitely stay there again.
Fantastic location and apartment! Restaurant was perfect for cappuccino. Uber for longer trips or with luggage is fantastic and picks you up out the door. Pro tip: wear tennis shoes since the walkways are very, very uneven. Enjoy your stay!
We had a wonderful stay at this property in Florence! The location was fantastic and made it easy to explore the city and get to all of the main sights. The apartment was very clean, beautifully styled, and had a modern, comfortable feel. The air conditioning worked extremely well, which was especially appreciated during the warm days in Florence. Overall, a lovely place to stay, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Florence!
The heat in Florence was brutal but the apartment stayed cool and refreshing the entire stay. Wonderful location, quiet, clean and the perfect resting space between very hot activities!
Apartment was beautiful and photos were accurate. It was clean, bright and spacious, property manager was very helpful. Fantastic location, walkable to everything! We enjoyed our stay!
The location was perfect. We could walk to all the sites we wanted to see in Florence. Antonio was very responsive to our questions. There was also a binder in the apartment with helpful information on how to work the washer/dryer, taxi info, etc. We really enjoyed our stay!
Great apartment in an incredible location. Antonio was very attentive and we had no problems during check-in or checkout. We would definitely stay again and recommend to others.
Apartment was spacious and washer/dryer on-site was convenient for multi-week stay. Host, Atillio, was responsive, cordial and helpful. Piazza Santa Croce is a nice blend of activity and quiet ambiance close to places of interest in Florence.
This apartment is steps away from the Santa Croce church, right on the plaza. It was very clean, with combined washer and dryer which was a great help. A taxi stand was at the end of the plaza, and we found several good restaurants within a few short blocks. We loved this apartment.
Great location! Property was clean and spacious! Our Host Antonio was very helpful and available for any questions.Highly recommend for your stay in beautiful Florence!
The locations of this spacious apartment can't be beat! Right on the Piazza, but toward the back of the building so very quiet. Loads of restaurants, markets and conveniences nearby. Florence is very walkable, but this location made it easy to access all the major sights easily. And there is a taxi stand right at the Piazza so no need to phone for a cab when needed. Host Antonio was very helpful and the entrance to the property was totally efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
The apartment was very roomy, clean, well equipped and comfortable for our family of four. The location was great - everything was walkable. We would definitely stay there again the next time we visit Florence.
The apartment was spotless and comfortable. Walking distance to just about everything we wanted to do and see. A wonderful craft market in the square was a highlight.
Easy communication
Easy checkin
Very clean, spacious, well equipped and the most comfortable bed we’ve had in 2 weeks/4 locations in Italy!
The apartment is on the piazza Santa Croce but in the back so it’s super quiet
I would definitely stay there again
Excellent stay at Antonio’s property. The location is second to none with the beautiful Santa Croce church right outside and easy walking distance to all key sites. The AC was second to none too as we arrived in the midst of a heat wave. Grocery close by and lots of restaurants also with the apartment well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Would highly recommend!
Everything was perfect. The location cannot be beat and the property was clean and comfortable. I loved to open the windows and hear birds and church bells. You will not be disappointed if you book here.

thank you very much for your kind words Jan, I'd be more than happy to host you again!
We were very happy with this accommodation. It is spacious, bright, good kitchen, comfortable beds and pillows, quiet, lots of hot water and pressure in the shower. The location is excellent right beside Saint Croce Church, lots of restaurants within blocks, a coffee shop next door. The property manager was very responsive. We would stay here again.
Our stay at Antonio’s place was great. The location was superb, and the apartment was exactly as it was listed.
Furthermore, António was very responsive to any questions that we had, and he had prepared the place with extra towels and everything my family needed.
We would definitely stay there again and would happily refer this place to friends.
Our trip was wonderful. The apartment exceeded our expectations in every way! It was spotless, and stocked with everything we needed including some very interesting books. We especially loved the location. Everything that Florence has to offer was in walking distance. Right outside the building is a wonderful cafe and restaurant. Communication with Antonio the owner was excellent and made the entire process so easy. We'll definitely return.
this apt was perfect for either first time visitors to Florence or others looking to explore the city again… it was perfect location to see so much of the city at doorsteps. The apartment was immaculate and exactly ad show online with everything you would need for a quick or extended stay.wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and will definitely stay here again
We had an excellent stay and really enjoyed this apartment, located right on the Santa Croce piazza. Apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We stayed with our young adult daughter and appreciated the space, location and washer. Apartment is up one set of stairs. Host Antonio was very helpful, highly recommended for your trip to Florence.
