Great experience with excellent communication with host. Excellent location. Only fault is that house has less beds than advertised in rooms. Otherwise, a wonderful stay.
5.0
We are a group of six women in our 60’s and 70’s. The Pepi apartment is ideally situated, with major attractions located within walking distance. The short walk from the train station was manageable and saved the cost of taxi. We appreciated the quiet residential location with lovely restaurants and market nearby.
This clean and well appointed space also has a fully equipped kitchen.
There are stairs but they are manageable. We would return for sure.
Thank you Massimo. We loved our stay in Florence and appreciated having such a beautiful space to call home.

Recently renovated apartment , well-equipped and located in residential neighborhood not far from the Duomo or San Croce. Maximo is responsive and accommodating. The only issue was the number of stairs to climb .definitely would recommend.

We had a wonderful time at the apartment. The place was spacious and very clean. The AC works perfectly. There were screens on the windows to keep out mosquitoes and bugs. We were greeted by Massimo's friend and given excellent local expert advice on what to see and where to eat. We recommend the place highly.

Pepi and Grande apartments
I have used both the Pepi and Grande apartments for the past two years for my students. The accommodations are perfect and the location is superb. It is always clean. Thanks to Massimo for allowing us to stay in such lovely apartments. I highly recommend this to any large family or small group looking to find a place to really enjoy what it means to stay in Florence.

Loved It!
This apartment made us feel like we were locals and we loved it! It's a great location and we were able to walk everywhere. The entire place was clean and comfortable (although be careful of the low ceiling in the upstairs bathroom). Massimo was a wonderful host! He helped us find our way around town and was available for any questions regarding our stay. I would highly recommend this apartment!

FANTASTIC FLORENCE PENTHOUSE!
We wanted to congratulate Massimo for being a very great host for our six nights in Florence and a beautiful two bedroom penthouse apartment. The apartment was as described, completely well-equipped, and extremely clean. The apartment had a full kitchen, air conditioning in every room and A washer dryer unit. Massimo helped us with every thing and personally described all the features of The apartment to us, as well as told us where to find restaurants, groceries, and the like. If we had any questions, we called Massimo and he had immediate and complete answers. We would recommend this penthouse highly to all travelers to Florence, it is centrally located and easy to get everywhere. We will look forward to our next trip to stay in this great place! thanks Massimo

Location
The location was excellent. Close to most everything, plus restaurants, grocery ... Would stay again and recommend to any friends and family. Massimo was so kind, friendly and helpful. This was a great choice. Thank you.

Great spacious apartment close to everything
We stayed with our elderly Aunt and Uncle at this location and were very pleased with the apartment.
It is very close to a grocery store and has all the necessary items to cook and more importantly to make coffee. It is a small walk to the major attractions and also far enough away from the main district to have peace and quiet.
It is more spacious than it looks in the pictures and each couple has their own space. We were there when it was a little chilly and that makes the fact you can control your own heat very important which we were able to do here. Also, having two separate bathrooms was a treat and seems hard to find in Italy. I would not hesitate to stay again or recommend this location to a friend. Massimo was very responsive and so helpful.

Как дома:) Fell yourself at home
Отличная альтернатива гостинице, больше свободы, меньше денег, чувствуешь себя как дома!
Мы были вчетвером, двое взрослых и два тинэйджера, 16 и 14 лет. Квартира как нельзя лучше подходила нашей компании, чисто, уютно, просторно. Оснащена всем необходимым: хочешь - готовь дома, посуды достаточно, хочешь - в ресторан. Дети свободно могли выйти сами, вокруг безопасно и все рядом. Массимо, хозяин, всегда был на связи, очень гибкий и внимательный, все нам рассказал, порекомендовал, куда сходить, где поесть. Всем советую:) Спасибо, Массимо

Great apartment in Florence
My two teenage children and I stayed in this apartment and loved it. The apartment is very conveniently located - we were able to walk to everything we wanted to see, as well as a couple of grocery stores. The neighbourhood is quite safe; we walked home late at night and never felt concerned. The apartment looks as is shown in the photographs. Massimo was a pleasure to deal with. He met us at the apartment upon arrival, showed us around, and provided us with a list of nearby sights. He made sure we had everything we needed, and even returned the same day to provide us with additional bedding after we changed the configuration of the upstairs beds. He also arranged for a taxi for us when we were leaving. We hope to return to Florence again soon, and would not hesitate to stay at Piccolo Pepi again!

American tourist
The apartment is in a GREAT location, on a quiet street and centrally located to all "tourist" areas. It is nicely furnished with a washer and dryer, although we did not use the dryer, we hung our clothes out to dry. It is perfect for a family as it has two floors. There were four of us, my husband and I and my daugher and one of her friends (both 18) and they enjoyed their own bath and having a loft to themselves. The apartment is close to a grocery store - that was a fun adventure. It is very close to great restaurants - we found a new one called Touch that we highly recommend. It is on the third floor with no elevator but that was not a problem, the stairs are wide and winding.

A comfort apartment
Massimo's apartment is not far from all the attractive points, but quiet during night, so comfort for our stay and sleep. The apartment provide enough space for us, and 2 bathroom are really convenient. Everything looks as what is shown on picture. Massimo is a good host. He prepare a list for all the useful information nearby, and help us to reserve taxi before we live. Even though the building without elevator, but live in a local building with some history, that will not be a problem for us. Stay in local apartment and live as local people, this is really good experience.

Great location
Comfortable and spacious apartment close to historic centre. Massimo was helpful in every way. There is no lift in the building so probably not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Nevertheless, we were delighted with our choice and would definitely recommend this apartment.

Very comfortable apartment and great location
We really enjoyed our stay at the Picolo Pepi apartment. The location was very private yet with easy access to all of the most interesting parts of Florence. The apartment itself was very comfortable and the two bedrooms worked out perfectly for our family. Our young adult kids were able to share the upstairs bedroom and we stayed in the bedroom on the main floor. The kitchen was well equipped and the convenient access to the nearby supermarket allowed us to have breakfast in the apartment each morning. It was also great to have AC since we were there in mid-August and spent our days walking 8-10 miles in 95 degree temperatures. All in all we were very pleased with the apartment and appreciated the smooth reservation and payment process provided by Massimo and staff.

Fabulous stay in Firenze!
Everything was very conveniently located and a beautiful, historic building. Many thanks to Massimo for the great tour and his quick availability. We did not have any issues and found everything in the apartment to be perfect. We were two couples and were very comfortable. Certain to recommend to our family and friends.

We enjoyed our stay
We rented Picolo Pepi for a week. We were four women friends traveling together and the apartment worked perfectly. We ran into some issues with the air conditioning, but Massimo had a repair person on-site as soon as he possibly could have. Stuff happens, but the response is what counts...and his was excellent. The apartment was well located, so we were able to walk everywhere. A non-apartment related recommendation is that if you are planning to stay for several days, absolutely get a Fierenze Pass. It was a bit difficult to find the place to purchase one, but well worth the effort. Not so much that it saves you money (unless you go to a lot of museums) but there are special lines which can save you hours of standing in the sun. We never waited more than five minutes anywhere. I would absolutely recommend this apartment to anyone who is physically able to walk up and down the four flights of stairs to the apartment (no elevator).

We booked the Grande and Picolo Pepi apartments for our family group of three generations: two grandparents, three adult children and one son-in-law and two toddler grandchildren. It was a very good decision. As well as being ideally located to see the sights of Florence, the apartments are well appointed, clean, quiet and spacious. Our host, Massimo was punctual when we arrived and made sure that we felt very welcome. He arranged some other matters for us such as taxis all with gracious hospitality too. The connecting doors between the two and three bedroom apartments meant that we could have our own quiet or noisy times, important when it was toddler rest hour or some of us wanted to come in late from a dinner outing. If we are fortunate enough to find ourselves able to visit Florence again, the Pepi apartments will be our choice of accommodation. Highly recommended!
5.0
Piccolo Pepi was combined with Grande Pepi to accommodate my students who were in Italy studying the Culture and History of Italy through Food. The apartment was wonderful--clean, well-equipped, and convenient to many sites like Santa Croce and the Sant Ambrogio market. I would recommend this apartment to people who want to be close to the "touristy" sites but still be in an area that is filled with local residents and non-touristy restaurants. Great host and Massimo is very dedicated to guest service and satisfaction.

Five of us stayed at the apartment in Florence! We really had a wonderful time there. Massimo was exceptional and having the feeling of staying at a home made our experience much more memorable. The windows open up to a center garden area which you would not get from a hotel. And having the benefit of the kitchen we were able to have breakfast and snacks at the apartment. It was my mother's favorite place that we stayed in Italy! The only things I would comment on are it's location - about 3/4 mile from heart of Florence (Duomo) and it's on the 4th floor without an elevator, so getting our luggage up there was a bit of a work out! But my mom is 82 years old and she did it! I would definitely recommend this property!!

The apartment (piccolo) where we (a family of 2 adults with 2 daughters 20 and 17 years old) spent one week was perfectly placed to explore the city. Everything could be reached by walking and near by the apartment was a supermarket, a market hall and a post office. The apartment is well equiped with everthing you need to prepare a meal. It is sunny and quiet. Massimo was very helpful to give us advices and tipps. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We spent one week in February 2015 in both piccolo and grande apartment. We came with our family (4 grand parents, 6 adults, 3 children) and for everybody, the apartments were perfect! You can open the doors between the apartments to have one big flat or you close them if you want to and have two apartments. The rooms and bath rooms are very nice, there is everything you need, Massimo is very helpful, the stairs up to the flat are not too exhausting and the location right in the old town of Florence is perfect. There is a supermarket really close and you can do everything by foot. For us, it was really marvellous!

I spent a week in Florence with two friends and, not being being of the type (nor of the age) to enjoy night life, we really appreciated the calm we found in Massimo's apartment. The bedrooms were spacious, the beds not too soft, the kitchen-living room area nice and clear, thanks partly to its height. We found all the necessary equipment for cooking.
The apartment is very well situated - there are quite a few restaurants and a good market place (Mercato Sant'Ambrogio) near by, it only takes 10 minutes to walk to the Duomo or to San Marco...
Massimo was friendly and helpful.
We would certainly be happy to return to this apartment were we to go back to Florence !

We spent a lovely week in Massimo's appartments. We rent both of them, one was used for the children, the other for the parents. It was really ideal for our group (we were 11 people).
The local is very central near to major touristic points and just 2mn from a supermaket.
5.0
We wanted a quiet place, comfort, convenient location. This apartment was ideal, Massimo was brilliant in responding to any queries and nothing ever seemed too much trouble to him.
The location was great and the stairs no problem even with a twisted knee. The furniture was very complete to cater for ones needs, there was even a desk in each bedroom to allow writing and the lighting was good. The only cons were inconsistent hot water in the shower and people in the next door flat using washing machine in middle of night.

My parents, sister and I had an amazing experience staying at this apartment. Massimo was very easy to get in touch with whenever we needed assistance or had any questions. The place was in perfect condition. It was very clean and was all around perfect for our stay. It is very close to the train station and walking distance to various sightseeing points in the area! We will be back!

Enjoyed our three night stay at the apartment. Clean, roomy with plenty of amenities to prepare meals as needed. The upstairs bathroom has a very low ceiling beam, good overall size so watch your head if you are over 5'3". First floor bedroom is large. The location is wonderful and very close to a supermarket for supplies as well as experiencing Florence sties. Massimo was incredibly attentive both prior to our arrival stay and during our stay, checking in with us while we were there. Highly recommend this apartment. Yes, it is up several flights of stairs but the building is quiet, clean and centrally located. The American coffee maker is brand new!

Hemos alquilado los 2 apartamentos de via dei Pepi (el grande y el pequeno) porque eramos un grupo de 10 chicas. Ha sido perfecto!! Los apartamentos estaban limpisimos, la decoracion es preciosa, son muy muy tranquilos y tienen todas las comodidades (lavadora, secadora, lavavajillas,...). Estan muy cuidados. La posicion te permite ir caminando a todas partes en Florencia. No os preocupeis por las escaleras!! Son muchas pero los escalones son muy bajitos. Gracias a Massimo por todas las facilidades que nos ha dado. Volveremos, seguro!

Location was great! Right in the heart of old Florence, only a few blocks from the Duomo and easy walks to so many of the museums and restaurants. Only two blocks from a grocery store which gives you some easy options for eating breakfast in the apartment before a long day of sightseeing!

Our 6 days in Florence were inhanced by our stay at the Piccolo Pepi apartment. We found it clean and attractive inside. The view from the huge windows in the living room area was just as we'd hoped....an Italian neighborhood, bright and sunny. The owner, Massimo, was very helpful and relaxed. We were so close and in walking distance to everything that Florence is famous for as well as terrific restaurants and the Santa Croce church which is well worth a visit. The Ponte Vecchio was not far. We felt like we were part of Florence and among the real residents while staying there. I do reccommend this apartment to Florence visitors who want an authentic experience in the city.
