Our family needed a two bedroom apartment for our stay in Florence and this one was simply perfect! Great location. So clean. Still felt a little Tuscan rustic but modern accommodations. The communication with the host was absolutely perfect too! Even the parking instructions worked out great! I can’t recommend it enough for your stay in Florence.

Me, my wife and our two kids stayed at this property. It was great for what we needed which was: enough beds/bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom and being close to things in the city. I can appreciate how some people might have issues with the stairs up to the apartment, so just a heads up on that. Great location. Great communication. Great price. Would definitely recommend!

We arrived to apartment and was disappointed with the apartment, the location was great, lot of restaurants in the area, and reasonably priced. Close to a lot of attractions. The one bathroom was not very big, shower , toilet and sink all in one size of a closet. When we rented the apartment on VRBO it said check out 12 noon, we received an email from host saying we had to be out by 10 AM. Also 120 euros are a bit much for city tax and utilities.

Spacious, comfortable, great location. Unfortunately, we had an extremely difficult time getting a taxi so I'm not sure if that's due to location or just a bad week.

Absolutely incredible apartment with superb location. Unfortunately, wi FI service was more down then up. I would recommend providing at least soap, shampoo and body lotion, when you come in, you don't check on it immediately and then oops, you don't have it in the evening, other than that we really loved it and definitely recommend to stay there. Thank you for your hospitality.

Flat was as described and check in process was simple. Great communication. Flat was very conveniently located, we were able to walk every where. Highly recommend

Close to Santa Croce and good shopping and eating. Easier to just eat out than cook in.
Only problem was nighttime noise from neighbors overhead on our first night, when we were already jet lagged and exhausted.
Otherwise, nice apartment in a great location. The price was right, for the location.
Host was very nice and responsive.

It’s a very clean quiet and spacious apartment in the heart of Florence within walking distance to most attractions. Taxi stops are nearby with public transportation available too. I would highly recommend it!

Convenient to attraction landmarks, very clean. Just know you are lugging your large suitcases up and down a long, steep stairwell. Have someone strong in your party! Otherwise it felt safe, clean and homey!!

Location, location, location. You can not beat this location for convenience in Florence. This was a wonderful property for our family of 6. We had two (adult) kids on couches, but they were comfortable. Super clean and well cared for.
Marco was easy to work with and helpful. He allowed us to drop our bags early, which was really kind and allowed us to hit the ground running without lugging things around.
Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful experience from the time of booking until we checked out. Communication with the host was easy and accurate and there were no problems finding it or getting in. The location is perfect -- close enough to everything but still feels right on the edge of the chaos of the city (it was nice to be so close to a the Otrano and the Ponte alle Grazie). Typical city living with outside noises and neighbors activities but none were an isssue.
Bedrooms are quiet and peaceful. With a family of five, one teen slept on pull out in the front and was comfortable (and able to easily outlast or sleep through the noise from the street below). It is a perfect retreat at the edge of the amazing chaos of Florence.

Location is above a pub so it was noisy the first night. Easy to walk to everything. About one mile from the train station. Second bed was uncomfortable. I would recommend removing entertainment center in the living room (across from couch), and adding a couple of comfortable chairs instead. Would also recommend thicker curtains on the windows as neighbors’ windows look in. The stained glass window in the bedroom lets in a ton of light from the neighbors’ apartments. Wi-fi is bad.

This condo was an excellent VrBO to spend time in Florence. Close to everything and very spacious.
The place is very suitable for both small and big groups. The host was very quick and friendly with all their communications.
Check in and check out processes were easy to get through and understand.
The price of the condo was reasonable for the space location and amenities.
Thanks for such a great time!!

Great location for a quick stay. Able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go. Large space with reasonable privacy for two couples. Uffizi, Duomo, David all close by. Best sandwich in Florence arround the corner. Alla Antica Vinaio. I would stay here again. WIFI is a little spotty.

..a well positioned, comfortable property close to all the places Florence is famous for. Well served for cafes and restaurants too.
5.0
We were very pleased with the accommodations. Very spacious. Greatest challenges were the stairs from the street level and the door lock on the apartment. Not a long walk from the train station (approx. 1 mile) but with the cobblestone and winding streets it would have been a lot easier on the body if we'd taken a cab. Cab approximately $10.
Google maps was confusing with all the winding streets and it took much longer than we anticipated.
Great location - 1 block from the Arno. Nice coffee shop around the corner on the Arno directly behind our place.

We rented for 4 night.City taxes for 4 days in Florence is Euro 22. We were charged city tax and electricity Euro 160. The host Bianca was great, and bought basics of 4 wine glasses to replace the only one broken wine glass. There were only 3 table knives and 3 coffee spoons. Wash machine had a lock. The main bedroom sliding door could not be closed. The owners live in the USA, and in our opinion, did not care fix broken items. It did have A/C, and what we heard from other hosts where we have stayed, electricity informally is not charged extra, but is part of cost of apartment. Our stay was made great only by Bianca, the acting host. High ratings are only because of her great personality and wanting to make a wrong thing right.

We had a great stay. It was spacious and easy to live in.
The location is very convinient close to Piaaza della Signioria with excellent ice cream shop close by and supermarket.
The backroom is very nice and quiet. The middle room is a bit more noisy and difficult to keep it dark.
I would suggest the furnish a bit more the kitchen with some additional cutlery, plates, glasses...
We would be happy to stay there again.

Une excellente adresse, très bien placée, au coeur de Florence
Un emplacement idéal à deux pas du cœur de Florence.
La relation amont avec ses propriétaires Noemi et Marco a été fluide et très réactive malgré nos nombreuses sollicitations. Les informations pour accéder à l'appartement sont extrêmement claires (textes/photos).
Nous avons trouvé un appartement spacieux, très propres tant en ce qui concerne les installations que les linges de maison fournis. Nous n'avons pas d'avis pertinent sur le matériel de cuisine car nous n'avons pris que les petits déjeuners à l'appartement.
Malgré un emplacement dans une zone très fréquentée (ce qui est aussi un avantage) il reste malgré tout relativement peu bruyant. Néanmoins la chambre intérieure disposant d'une magnifique porte sur un puits de lumière reste sensible aux bruits et lumières de l'immeuble.
Nous avons pu utiliser le parking privé (Parclick) situé à 4 numéro de l'appartement. Certes il est cher mais idéalement placé (zone ZTL mais le pk s'occupe de tout) et il est difficile de trouver mieux sauf à s'éloigner significativement.
En synthèse: une bonne adresse.

Sehr schöne Wohnung, gut geeignet für Familien
Die Lage der Wohnung ist optimal in der Nähe aller Sehenswürdigkeiten gelegen. Der Vermieter ist seht nett und hilfsbereit. Wir konnten die Wohnung direkt nach unserer Ankunft schon morgens beziehen (Anreise per Nachtzug) . Vielen Dank nochmals an dieser Stelle!

Buona soluzione per famiglie numerose
La prenotazione è stata gestita bene da vrbo c'è stato però un disguido sulle spese da pagare in loco. c'è stato detto, dal host, dopo aver prenotato, che erano indicati su vrbo dei prezzi errati. Si parla di 100 euro in più. Amen ma la cosa non c'è piaciuta molto. L'appartamento è molto grande, rustico ma in buone condizioni e dispone di 8 posti letto, 2 però si trovano nel soggiorno dove il caos proveniente dalla strada non permette il ben che minimo riposo. Consiglio quindi di sfruttare al max 6 posti. La cucina è attrezzata, le stoviglie sono per 6 persone. Noi eravamo in 8 e ci siamo arrangiati facendo mangiare 2 persone con il cucchiaio anziché forchetta. Ci sono 2 bagni il secondo è proprio solo un wc e mini lavabo, ma utilissimo quando si è in tanti. È presente wifi, climatizzazione e riscaldamento e smart TV nel soggiorno. La posizione è centrale a 10 Min da ponte vecchio in ztl quindi. Tutto sommato siamo rimasti soddisfatti lo consigliamo anche uno dei giorni in cui abbiamo alloggiato, al piano di sopra hanno iniziato dei lavori di ristrutturazione che provocavano la caduta di calcinacci sulle nostre teste, abbiamo chiesto di sospendere i lavori e siamo riusciti a completare il soggiorno.
