Fantastic location to many of the hot spots in the city. Great AC. Could use some power plug duplicators (or bring your own) in the bedrooms, but not a big deal. Lovely apartment that was just as fun to enjoy takeaway dinner in as it was to launch an adventure from. Elevator was a life saver with our luggage! Would happily stay here again.

Wonderful and welcoming stay! The location was perfect - close to the action but still quiet and off of the main roads. The check in process was seamless, and Marie was easy to communicate with and quick to respond. The apartment was lovely, well equipped, and provided all that we needed. Marie also provided us with wonderful recommendations and guidance. Definitely would stay here again if we are lucky enough to make it back to Florence!

The apartment was as described in VRBO - two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a very spacious living room / kitchen area. Everything was in close walking distance - historical sites, shops and restaurants. Arrival and departure was smooth. Marie gave us all of the necessary details to go right into the apartment with no waiting time and it was just as easy to check out.

The apartment is beautifully located between the Piazza Signoria and Santa Croce, within easy walking distance of the usual sites. (Like all sensible older people, we took a cab up to San Miniato and walked back down and another to a nice restaurant. Otherwise, we walked.) The elevator is small but useful for bags and groceries. The light in the morning is lovely. The kitchen has what one needs to cook simple meals (and there's a Conad store for tourist basics very close by), and we did cook pasta-ands-sauce a couple of evenings. The bathrooms are a decent size; the bed was comfortable. Our host, Marie, met us when we arrived and went over the keys and elevator. All very smooth.

Wonderful home base in Florence. Great location to explore the city. The apartment had everything necessary for a comfortable and easy stay. Note the elevator is helpful but small. This isn’t a place to tote a ton of luggage but great if you’re traveling lightly.

Upon arrival address was incorrect and we had to wait 1 hour outside until resolved . While confirmation gas correct address no cell service where I was prevented me from confirming . Additionally shower door broken and not fixed while we were there

Beautiful Florence home!

Pros: - Very quiet - Beautiful rooms and bathrooms - Love the showers - AC is fantastic and works great - Close to all the major sights - Elevator - Marie was so helpful and fantastic Cons: - gnats in the kitchen (brought it up to the owner and she was helpful in trying to remedy it) - Check in was incorrect on VRBO. Message Marie before your visit. The instructions were missing a part.

Charming flat, great location and lovely host.

I can’t say enough great things about this location and apartment. It is quiet and easy access to everything. I was in Florence a week before and stayed in the Savoy Hotel ( room was very small), and it was noisy at times. This apartment was so clean and spacious and very quiet. Close to grocery store, and steps away from cafes. Anytime I had a question Marie was very quick to respond. We will definitely stay here again. AC was good, in all areas of the home.

Great Location

Enjoyed staying here. Very clean, quiet, and plenty of space. Central location to the historic sites. It was a bit of a walk from the train station but we managed. Would stay here again. If you reserve the property make sure you review how to get into the apartment with the host before arriving. It’s a rather involved process.

Charming Tuscany

The apartment was spacious and had a charming Tuscan flair. The kitchen was well equipped and a good size as,was the seating area. It was situated on a quiet residental street away from the rush of people and traffic, but easily within walking distance to all the historic sights. I would definitely stay there again if in Florence
