This is the second time in a year that I have stayed in Thais cottage with my young adult sons. It could not have been any more perfect for us. Massimiliano is the most welcoming, kind, and helpful doorman. He how above and beyond. The flat is beautiful and comfortable. It is in the best location. I look forward to staying there again. I highly, highly recommend staying here.

The flat is just beautiful. Of course it looks nice in the photographs, but it is even more beautiful in real life. It is very spacious and comfortable. There were four of us staying, my husband and I, and our two young adult daughters, 18 and 20. We were all delighted with the flat, and would happily stay there again. It was lovely to come home in the evening to such a beautiful space. It was warm and the beds were comfortable, everything was perfectly clean. I can happily recommend staying here, we loved it.

Lovely apartment in an ideal location. A island of peace in the bustle of Florence. Responded quickly to our needs. We were taking a course 3 minutes walk away. Our only minor issue was that we all have devices to charge at our bedsides—power bars would make it easier to have a reading light and a charged iPad at the same time

Florence Hideaway

The property is lovely and very well supplied. The setting in an inner courtyard is lovely and quiet, and we enjoyed the ability to park our rental car onsite. The location in the Oltrarno is wonderful - with great shops and restaurants in almost every block, and yet only a 15 minute walk to the Uffizzi Gallery across the Arno. We very much enjoyed our stay!

The apartment is in a great location and close to many restaurants and shops. It has a great feel of Italy and it is so nice to relax there after a long day of sightseeing. The set up is very unique and offers privacy to the guests. We will definitely rent again if we go back to Florence.

Nice setting. Great location. We were across the river from the busiest sections but close enough to walk to the places we wanted to visit. Apartment was big enough for 4 adults to be comfortable. Nice (antique) furnishings. Doorman was very helpful.

Great Location

As stated in prior reviews, this is a very nice, roomy and well maintained historic property in a great location. It was a very easy walk to all we wanted to do during our 1 week, late May stay. The property manager was onsite during business hours and quickly responsive to any requests for assistance. We recommend this flat to others.

We loved staying here.. close to everything we wanted to do.. it was a little dark.. so more light would help... I was caught off guard by the bedroom with the single bed had a private bath.. and the two bedrooms with double beds shared a bathroom.. but othewise this place was fantastic. We definitely recommend it and stay there again.

We stayed here for two weeks while I attended a language school. It’s close enough to walk everywhere (10-15 minutes). It has so much charm and was quiet. The photos really don’t do it justice. We would definitely stay here again. Also, communication was great. Thank you Anna Maria and Massimiliano for an amazing stay in Florence!

A lovely stay in Oltrarno

We stayed in the carriage house at this lovely old villa on our three day stop in Florence. The check-in was easy and flexible - our train was delayed but coordination was easy with the host. Our unit was nicely appointed and clean, and the location was wonderful - close enough to the major sites on the other side of the Arno but not in the thick of things. Highly recommended!

Celebrating the New Year in Florence!

This is such a true representation of Florence, stay here to feel like you are a part of the city. Not just in a nice hotel. Very comfortable, has everything you need. Such history. Would highly recommend! An extra set of keys would be helpful if two couples are staying but otherwise a super place!!!
