Fantastic location, immaculately clean, washer and dryer, and the host was absolutely lovely. It has been the best accommodation so far on our trip. It's literally around the corner from the Duomo, the neighborhood had a great vibe and the attachment itself if very comfortable for a family.

Very well equipped and spacious, given the location, apartment. The washing machine was a treat, not to mention the dishwasher. While the street is very busy, it is an interior apartment which is very quiet. The owner is very responsive. Highly recommended.

Our host was very responsive. Easy to coordinate with. The condominium was clean and orderly. Location was perfect. 200 meters from the train station. Easy walk to great shopping. Just right outside the doors was a Biscotti bakery. The smell was amazing. Located near by was the mercado centrale. ( central market). Fresh everything. Charcuterie, cheeses, fresh sandwiches, vinegar, lemon cello, pizza, cannoli, and pastries. High end shops were within minutes of walking. Sight seeing was easy and all very close to the condominium. One note, this is a unit upstairs. No elevator. Overall a great stay.

Fun, lively neighborhood

The apartment was as advertised, on the 3rd floor, so be prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs, but once there, quite comfortable and clean. The neighborhood was fun for just walking around with lots of restaurants and stores on the street. The washer and dryer were so helpful!

Comfort in the Heart of Florence

We liked that the living space was all on one level (albeit on the 3rd floor; considered the 2nd floor in Europe). Plenty of room for two couples, with one true full bath and another "wet room" bath). Perfect location, within walking distance of all the major attractions. Would stay again.

Great Location

The apartment is in the perfect location, you were able to walk everywhere and enjoy the beautiful sites of Florence. It is very clean, with washer and dryer and the walk up the stairs each day was like we were experiencing Florence as if we lived there. Sabrina was a great communicator, all the way up to our check-in., Very thorough with helping me to sign into WhatApp for messaging and calling. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great time in Florence

The apartment was incredibly convenient to everything. It's on a busy street filled with restaurants and shops but since the apartment is in the back of the building, you don't hear a thing. Couldn't be better located. It had everything you need. I would certainly stay there again.

Perfect location

A friend and I enjoyed our stay at this comfortable and perfectly situated apartment. Less than 10 minutes slow walk from the train station, and the central market is just around the corner. It’s a quieter part of the city, and especially quiet at night in the apartment. We will recommend this apartment to anyone coming to Firenza.

Perfect Location

Great stay, walked out the front door into the hustle and bustle of a busy pedestrian only street. Very close to many eateries and markets. Walking distance to Duomo and chapels etc. Authentic Book a Batch, comfy beds but ensuite in main bedroom was very very small and compact. Did the job at the end of the day .

Clean, quiet, charming, and perfect location, we were able to walk from the train station to the apartment in about 5 mins and the street was bustling with coffee shops and restaurants, nice and bright at night, very safe feeling, and when we stepped into the apartment it was very quiet, also it was very close to everything you want to see, we would stay here again for sure.
