Fabulous Location in Oltrarno! Great lively neighborhood!
Super cute 2 BR/2BA apartment with balcony. We felt like locals in a hip neighbourhood that tourists are just discovering. Lots of restaurants, bars, gelateria and a supermarket around the corner. The owners were very accommodating and were ready for us earlier than normal.It is well furnished and spacious enough for 4+ people, if you use the chair beds. The owners easily communicated in advance of our arrival. I would definitely return and recommend to others.

Great Location in Florence
Very happy with this short 4 day stay. Owner accommodated an early check in which was greatly appreciated. Good communication. Apartment was just like it looked in the VRBO pictures….freshly renovated and very delightful. Always a plus to get two full bathrooms! Loved the location for meandering all over Florence. Tons of good restaurants

Optimale Wohnung in wunderbarer Stadt !
Wir waren mit 4 Personen eine Woche im April in dieser geschmackvoll eingerichteten Wohnung. Hohe Räume, hell, gut beleuchtet, stabile Stühle, Betten ausreichend lang und bequem, Küche voll eingerichtet. Raumwärme gut reguliert über die Klimaanlage. Alles sehr sauber, ruhiges Haus, ruhige Straße, sympathisches Viertel. Türcode und Kartenschlüssel funktionierten immer. 20 Minuten zu Fuß zum Bahnhof. Fast alle Sehenswürdigkeiten bequem zu Fuß erreichbar. Basilika San Miniato al Monte mit dem Bus 12, Haltestelle in der Nähe. Kleiner Supermarkt (auch sonntags bis 21 Uhr offen) und Bäckerei (bis 19.30 Uhr) ganz nah. Viele Restaurants. Gute Kommunikation mit Monica Griffi.

Perfect stay in Florence
This apartment has it all ….location, comfort and communication! It is an easy (less than 10-20 min) walk to all the great spots in Florence, AND it is on a very quiet street, very quiet at night. Spacious and comfortable inside and we loved the balcony patio. Monica is a fantastic host, easy check in and check out and she had great tips for restaurants and getting around Florence. We would definitely stay here again !

The perfect apartment for Florence!
Everything about this stay was perfect! The location is far enough from the center of the city to be quiet and peaceful but is still only a short walk to all of the main sights. Monica, our host, was wonderful and checked in on us often, even giving us recommendations for places to eat nearby. The apartment is very comfortable, with soft beds, plenty of closet space, and updated kitchen and bathrooms. We felt very much at home and would absolutely stay here again! Gratzie, Monica!

Great apartment!
Unfortunately only had 1 night in Florence but Monica was a great host accommodating our early check-in request and holding our bags the following morning while we explored the town a bit more. The apartment was very clean, and had water and coffee upon check in and was a short walk from the train station and the center of town. The beds were new and comfortable with good linens and towels provided. We would stay here again!

Florence
Our host Monica was very helpful and easy to communicate with. If we had questions she responded quickly and checked to make sure everything was ok. The property was really nice and well located. Really nice neighborhood with grocery store and restaurants very close by. We could walk to all the attractions we wanted to see easily. We would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Florence. Thank you Monica for letting us stay in your property, we enjoyed the experience!

Fabulous Florence !
A quiet location in San Spirito, yet a ten minute walk accross the bridge into all the big and small sights in Florence, was perfect for us. The apartment is spacious and secure, and clean, cool and calm, with a nice little balcony where we breakfasted every morning. Monica was so kind, guiding us to places to see and places to eat off the tourist trails, which suited our style of travelling. Our recommendation ? Book it !!

Soggiorno Les Griffes House
La casa di monica è in una posizione perfetta per visitare questa splendida città. E' a 15 minuti a piedi dalla stazione centrale e durante il tragitto si può ammirare piazza Santa Maria Novella ed il ponte Vecchio. L'appartamento è in un quartiere molto vivace ricco di bar, locali e ristoranti ma al tempo stesso in una strada silenziosa. Comodissimo il supermarket a 200 mt da casa, aperto dalle 9 alle 21.30. Monica è una padrona di casa eccellente! Sempre pronta e disponibile a dispensare consigli e suggerimenti per migliorare e rendere perfetto il tuo soggiorno. Torneremo sicuramente!

Esperienza eccellente
E' stata una esperienza eccellente. L'appartamento è situato in una zona molto vivace di Firenze, ricca di ristoranti, enoteche e bar, ma al tempo stesso in una strada molto silenziosa. Il ponte vecchio è a non più di 500 metri e tutti i principali luoghi di interesse storico e turistico sono raggiungibili a piedi. L'appartamento è molto più bello che dalle foto! E' molto spazioso e pulito e dotato di tutte le comodità ...io ho viaggiato da sola ma può tranquillamente ospitare le otto persone come in annuncio. E cosa dire di Monica? Mi ha accolto nel suo appartamento e mi ha fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie al mio breve soggiorno. Molto cordiale, disponibile e super comunicativa. Super consigliato!!!!
