Property was as described. Very secure and quiet. Ideal street and neighborhood. Neighborhood had Grocery store, bakery, cafe, restaurants all in short walking distance. Laundry service (1hr) was short walk. Can walk to sites and easy to walk along river day or night. Taxi stand close by. Owner lives in area, checked in during stay and was available if needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The place is lovely, clean, convenient to the major attractions, yet in a quiet neighborhood. Alessandro was a wonderful host. We even had to call him one night with a slight problem with Netflix, which he immediately took care of for us. Not many places provide a couple of streaming services for free. That was certainly a treat! So was the bottle of wine!
My only suggestion would be to provide an additional comfortable chair in the living room, as the couch is a little cozy for 3 or 4 people.
Thank you, Alessandro, for allowing us to use your lovely apartment.

This apartment is just perfect for a stay in Florence. It is very clean with comfortable beds and everything you need. The renovation was very well done. The location being just a 3 mins walk to the Ponte Vecchio makes it the perfect spot. Would absolutely stay here again.

Location cant be better. A couple of minutes walk to Ponte Vecchio. Alessandro is a great host with a very detailed explanation of the apartment. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at the Mirrors House in Florence. Alessandro and his wife were there to greet us when we arrived and gave us an extensive tour of the apartment and useful information about the surrounding area. The apartment is beautifully appointed and very comfortable. We were 4 adults and it was perfect. The apartment is a short walk to Ponte Vecchio as well as restaurants and shops. The hosts were extremely accommodating and went out of their way to help us, when needed. Highly recommend and will definitely come back when we return to Florence.
5.0
Bottom line is that we would stay here again and again and we would recommend to everyone we know. A delightful and comfortable stay with hosts who thought of everything!

This is an awesome location at the Ponte Vecchio. Lots of shops, restaurants and easy walk to the best of Florence’s attractions. Our host was easy to communicate with, has a spotless location and met us for check in to explain everything the apartment has to offer. I highly recommend.
5.0
Just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, this beautifully renovated property is in the most perfect location to all the important museums, cathedrals and squares. The host provided us with many restaurant and sightseeing recommendations. The only issue I would tell folks is that the property is accessible only via a steep hill so it probably would not be a good choice for anyone with mobility challenges. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. Highly recommend.
5.0
From start to finish, this was a wonderful property. Alessandro and his wife greeted us the moment we arrived, and they gave us a full orientation to the property. From how the keys worked to the amenities in this lovely apartment to explaining how to get to things in the area. The fact that it's located right near the Ponte Vecchio and a relatively easy walk to so much makes it great!
I highly recommend The Mirrors House!

Everything about our stay was fabulous. Our host greeted us when we arrived & gave us a tour of the property as well as suggestions for food, groceries, seeing the sunset, taxi services,ect… We did not want to leave! The location was walkable to everything including the train station. We hope to visit again in the future.

The Mirror House in Florence is amazing. We stayed there as a family of 4 (including 2 teens). There was plenty of room and it was walking distance to all of the attractions/shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Alessandro and his wife are amazing hosts. They met us at check in and gave us a tour and showed us how to use everything. They had a prepared list of shops and restaurants nearby that they enjoy - very helpful for your first day. My kids all enjoyed their own beds, and mom & dad had their own space as well. The location couldn’t have been any better, walking distance to everything you want to see - added bonus is the cab stand 1 block away. Plan on returning in the future!
5.0
We stayed here for a week with two teenagers, and could not have been happier. The space was just footsteps from the Ponte of Vecchio and walking distance to everything we needed. The apartment was fully stocked with everything that we could ever want, immaculately clean, and had all the necessities +2 bathrooms, which was key with having two teenagers. Do not waste a single second. Book this place.

The apartment was just as described and very clean. Beautiful inside with 2 very comfortable bedrooms and 2 baths. Alessandro and his wife were super helpful! We did have an issue with the power (not their fault - power company’s) and they fixed it right away. 3 of us stayed there and there was plenty of room. Great location - can walk anywhere pretty quickly. Only complaint is that it is located on a street with a steep hill and then it is about 15 steep steps to the apartment. It is not a big deal if you are young, but I was traveling with my mom who is in good shape, but is 72 years old and it was rather difficult. Just an FYI…otherwise, great place! Highly recommend

The Mirrors house is a well-maintained, beautiful apartment that's walking distance to many great attractions, restaurants, and forms of transportation. My friends and I really enjoyed staying at the property and the host, Alessandro, was absolutely wonderful. He responded to all our questions without hesitation and provided us with a great list of places to go and other resources we needed during our stay. If I'm ever in Florence again I will try hard to book the same place.
5.0
Wonderful apartment with every detail considered by Alessandro who met us and gave great tips for local restaurants and roof top bars, even for taxi reservations. Location is 10 min walk to palazzo vecchio/Uffizi (could be less but depends on the thickness of the crowds crossing Ponte vecchio), 5 min to pitti palace. I liked staying in oltrano which is slightly quieter, compared to our friends who stayed right off palazzo vecchio and they could not escape the crowds. We only wish the apartment had been available for more nights! Definitely would come back again.

Just renovated and done beautifully. Loved the location so close to the Arno river and Ponte Veccho. Good for stolling at night. Plenty of good restaurants nearby. Overall an excellent place to stay

This apartment was perfect! Situated in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to the main city and all areas and attractions. Nicely furnished, comfortable beds and lots of sunlight. So nice to come back to a beautiful apartment after a full day of sightseeing. Alessandro was so easy to communicate with and so helpful. I would not have second thoughts about booking this unit. You will not be disappointed!

Beautiful apartment which was close to everything we wanted to do. We were able to walk everywhere. Alessandro was helpful and quickly answered all questions. Highly recommend!
5.0
Alessandro and his wife were beyond welcoming and helpful during our stay, meeting us personally at check-in and showing us around. They had everything that we might need, down to a first aid kid and the best blow dryer that I have ever found in a rental or hotel.The apartment was spotless and perfect for our family of five. The location was great and we were able to walk everywhere that we wanted to go. There are several restaurants, gelaterias, and a grocery store within a couple of blocks. One morning we had an early appointment at the Uffizi Galleries and it was great to only have a five minute walk across the river to get there. I would definitely recommend this rental to others and hopefully stay here again.
5.0
This apartment is just like it’s listed. 2 couples stayed here together and there was so much room! There is a bit a hill to get to this place but so worth it. Also up the hill is a Boboli Gardens. So walkable to all the site.

Very comfortable for a family of four - ear major sites, restaurants, and a nice area to run along the River. Alessandro was very welcoming and helpful - highly recommend!
5.0
The apartment was wonderful. It was so clean and comfortable. It’s located perfectly near the main city attractions but just far enough so it is nice and quiet at night. Alessandro was very helpful and wonderful to communicate with. I would definitely recommend to friends and family 5 star.
5.0
Beautiful and tastefully decorated apartment steps away from Ponte Vecchio and Boboli Gardens. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds, and well-appointed kitchen in a perfectly modernized apartment. Our family really enjoyed our stay at Alessandro’s place and, though up a steep street, our kids (6 and 8) enjoyed it as well. We were perfectly comfortable and Alessandro was a wonderful host. The apartment is in an old building so there is some noise from neighboring apartments, but nothing that bothered us.
5.0
The apartment is beautiful inside and within walking distance to all the sites. Lots of great selection for good close by as well. Would stay here again.

Our family had the pleasure of staying at The Mirrors' House for two weeks. After long days of touring the city coming back to the apartment felt like your home away from home! The location is walkable to everything but also allows you to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the busy city. Do not hesitate to book this property it will help ensure a trip of a lifetime!

Alessandro was an amazing host. The apartment is superbly located in the center of Firenze close to all the major sites.
5.0
Alessandro was the most gracious host. He took his time in greeting us and showing us everything about his apartment. He provided recommendations for many things and communication was always very quick. The apartment itself was perfect for us. Comfortable beds, great baths and kitchen stocked with anything you needed. The guidebooks were a nice touch as was the TV all set up with Spotify, Netflix and Amazon Prime.
The location was perfect, with easy walking anywhere in city, but across the river at the ponte vecchio on a quiet street.
Do Not Hesitate Renting this Apartment.

Mirrors House was perfect in so many ways! It accommodated our group of 3 women in all the right ways (sleeping arrangements and bathrooms), it was clean and comfortable and our check-in with Alessandro and Nermin was more like meeting old friends than the hosts of our home-away-from-home. The location was convenient for all that we had wanted to see and do while in Florence...close to the Ponte Vecchio, a food market, wine shop, pastries and gelato shops...all in a safe neighborhood. It was close enough to the city center, but far enough away to escape the crowds and hubbub at days' end. All of us highly recommend this cozy apartment and, in fact, already have plans to return next year!

Most VRBO experiences are transactional. At the Mirrors’ House, I felt as if we were truly guests of Alessandro. As others have said, he was quick to respond to my pre-trip questions, upon our arrival he welcomed us genuinely, and the list of recommendations was like having a concierge.
The location was perfect—close to everything but quiet, too. Apartment is very well-maintained. Space was perfect for my family traveling with three children. Would work equally well for two couples.
5.0
We had a great time in Florence! Alessandro was a great host, he welcomed us and made sure we were comfortable in the apartment. He also sent us great recommendations and made himself available if needed. The apartment was beautiful, very clean and well maintained. It was also in a great location. I’d stay here again next time I go to Florence!
5.0
The apartment is exactly as described and perfect for us. It isvery clean and comfortable and just the right size for four of us. It is in a great location with easy access to all the interesting sites. The best thing s about it were the hosts. Alessandra and Nermin couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful, always ready to answer questions and make suggestions for restaurants and cafes.

Our party of four had a great stay in Alessandro's apartment. He and his wife met us at the apartment to show us how everything worked and gave us some good advice on restaurants and shops in the area. He also kindly arranged for a 3:30 am taxi to the airport for one of our party.
The VRBO map doesn't accurately show the apartments location, it's better! As my husband the golfer put it, "It's just a downhill par three to the Ponte Vecchio!"
We definitely will stay here again and highly recommend it to our friends.
5.0
Our host Alessandro could not have been more helpful and patient. Every possible consideration has been given to preparing the apartment, just a block from Ponte Vecchio. This will be our destination on all visits to Florence.

This was one of the best rentals I have ever stayed in! It was beautifully decorated, had a large space for a family (we were traveling with 3 adults and 2 toddlers), is perfectly located by Ponte Vecchio, and the hosts were incredible, gracious, welcoming, and so nice. They met with us when we arrived, helped show us everything you could possibly want to know about their beautiful home, left an amazing bottle of wine for us, and gave us incredible restaurant recommendations!! This was truly a 5-star experience! We would certainly stay here again.
5.0
From booking, to check-in to check-out the entire experience with out host Alessandro was flawless and a pleasure. Despite our Flight from Toronto being cancelled resulting in a 9 hour delay and arriving at our destination close to midnight, Alessandro and his wife waited up for us and greeted us like family. The location of "Mirrors" is ideal; it is close to everything but on a quiet street. We highly recommend this property and we will be back in the future.
5.0
Alessandro was extremely helpful! He showed us around the apartment and showed us how to use everything in the apartment. He even helped us set up our day to Cinque Terre! We loved the location of the apartment and all the recommendations for dining! The apartment is very clean and the beds are extremely comfortable!
