Host Stefano and Patrizia were amazing and so helpful. They set us up with everything you need to know about Florence. The apt was perfect. The location is great. Lots to do around the appt. And only a 20 walk to the heart of Florence. Highly recommend
A great place to stay just outside the old city gates. We walked everywhere from there including Termini (including backpacks and other bags) and we are 69!!!Our hosts were available by phone or text and very helpful. The air conditioning was a lifesaver give 100 degree days while we were there!
This apartment is gorgeous and close to everything! The hosts Patrizia and Stefano is amazing . Overall this apartment made me feel like hime. Super clean and well kept!
This apartment was modern, clean and in the perfect location. The host was extremely accommodating. We want to come back to Florence and we would definitely stay there again,
Patrizia and Stefano are amazing hosts. The apartment was immaculate, very nicely decorated, and perfectly represented a “home away from home” concept. We received a very warm welcome with a bottle of wine and cookies, which was above and beyond expectations. They also had business cards of a variety of local dining options that they recommended. They messaged us a couple of times to see how our stay was going. We loved the hosts, the apartment, and we were very happy with the location.
Our hosts Patrizia and were exceptional. They were very easy to communicate with and were great at assisting us with suggestions and recommendations. That unit is very clean and a very tee y nice size.
Stafano and Patrizia were absolutely fantastic. Due to unexpected flight delays, we arrived at the apartment very late and they meet us to help us up the stairs and show us around the beautiful apartment. The apartment is very well stocked with kitchen items and the restaurant recommendations we tried were fantastic. The rooms all had AC which was very nice with the high temperatures when we were there. I highly recommend staying at this beautiful apartment. It was perfect for our family of four.
The apartment was wonderful. Very clean, wonderful hosts, and super location. The local restaurants nearby were really excellent. So many cute places around and easy access to the Boboli gardens. Stefano came to help with our bags when we were leaving and we appreciated it so much! We were very pleased with our stay and highly recommend this apartment. We stayed for seven days, my son and I.
The apartment was very well maintained and clean. The hosts met as at check in and helped carry our bags upstairs. They were available via text the entire time. They gave us recommendations for taxis and food. We would stay again !!
Stefano and Patrizia were gracious hosts. They met us for check-in and even had the apartment ready early which was so helpful. They welcomed us with a treat as well. The apartment was very clean and bright and located in a nice building. There was a desk next to a window in one of the bedrooms that was a great spot to apply my makeup each morning with a mirrored wardrobe right next to it. Stefano even helped us with arranging a taxi for our early departure day because I was having issues with it. Would recommend and stay again as we hope to revisit beautiful Florence in our future travels.
Patizia and Stefano are A1 hosts. Communication with Patrizia was so convenient and easy and her responses were quick. She helped us with parking and when we noticed that we were in need of a couple of supplies, boom!, they were delivered. Check in was seamless; the apartment is beautiful and comfortable. The only thing is the sofa bed. Well, it is a sofa bed that we used for our young, nimble son.
100% recommend this property for your stay in Florence!
A spacious and clean apartment near the main city centre. A short walk to a grocery store, restaurants, numerous museums, coffee bars, shopping etc. Check in and out was very easy and we had paid parking for our car. Our hosts were very helpful and attentive. We would definitely stay here again!!!

Hosts were extremely hospitable. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. The beds and pillows were comfortable. The location we felt safe. Would be glad to stay again in the future.
Great place to stay. It was so clean and had everything we needed. Patrizia was there to greet us and always responded quickly to our questions. Location made it easy to walk to the sites and restaurants.
My family of 5 had the best time. The property is so clean! We appreciated this quiet space away from the hustle and bustle of the historic area. We would definitely choose to stay here again.
Excellent choice for a stay in Florence. The apartment was bright and clean. The hosts, Patrizia and Stefano, were easy to communicate with and were available for assistance.
