Great location! It felt like we lived in the neighborhood. The terrace was wonderful - every late afternoon/evening we had a glass of wine, listened to the church bells and watched the swifts. Gaia & everyone made us feel welcome and cared for.

This apartment was very cute and comfortable. It was centrally located in Florence, very close to the Duomo and many restaurants, etc. The view from the terrace was amazing. The elevator was much appreciated also. The host, Gaia, was very helpful meeting us at check-in and assisting with whatever we needed.

Overall, it's a serviceable base for exploring if the location is your priority but go in with adjusted expectations on space and comfort.We stayed here as one stop on a two-week trip through Italy. As American travelers, we found the space noticeably smaller than what we're used to — less of an adjustment for guests from other parts of Europe or Asia, but worth flagging for fellow US visitors. The building is historic and has charm, but that came with real trade-offs.Cons:- Bathroom was mid-remodel during our stay, makeshift shower curtain, had to follow the host's instructions for catching water. Listing shouldn't have been active before this was finished.- Twin bed was extremely hard, almost like a wood platform, painful on the hips if you sleep on your side- Required to pay the Italian tourist tax in cash directly to the host, rather than through the platform (like our other VRBO rental)- Unit is very small- Ceiling leaked during a rainstorm- WiFi only reached the living room/kitchen, not the bedrooms- Decor felt dated and a bit unwelcoming (lots of orange)- Towels were thin and scratchyPros:- Excellent location, walkable to great food and sights- Quiet at night- AC worked well- Small elevator on-site (with some stairs to reach it)

We loved the terrace, sipping wine and watching the sunset after a long day of touring. Location, location, location! Perfect location, less than two blocks from the Central Market, near great restaurants and the train and bus stations. Private, quiet, A/C and elevator too.

Gaia was a great host and was very accommodating and helpful. The apartment was in a great location for walking to everything we did. Grocery stores, restaurants, and a pharmacy were close by. We felt very safe at the apartment and the elevator was very helpful for moving our luggage on check-in and checkout. We will definitely plan to stay here again when we go back to Florence.

Although the description said there was a lift and there was, it did not say there were 7-8 concrete stairs to get to the lift and then 6-7 fairly steep stairs to reach the hall that led to the unit. For those of us who have issues with stairs, it was certainly problematic.Although sets of towels were laid out, there was only one bath towel per guest. In the closet there was a sign over additional towels and linens saying do not touch. Additional towels would be 5 each and 10 for linens.

A really delightful base for a stay in Florence

The welcome was charming, and we loved the little flat, especially the terrace with the double-dome view. San Lorenzo is an exciting area- you need not go far for glorious sights to see.
