Our family of four absolutely loved this space! Great location in a sweet, less touristy part of Firenze. Had three of the best meals of our entire two week trip in Italy just blocks from the apartment. It was clean, comfortable and updated with a wonderful soak tub too!

A little dusty
The location was convenient. The apartment worked for us and our stay. The size was perfect.
The apartment was very dusty. The light fixtures and the wardrobe all needed a good dusting.
I would stay again, I would just ask for it to be well dusted.
My sister and I had a Lovely stay. Taking possession of the apartment was easy. The welcoming party was very efficient but not very talkative. We would have liked more informations about the surroundings of the apartment, for example where to find the the closest Supermarket. This said, the apartment was as presented on the pictures and it was close to everything.
This flat is so charming - and right in the heart of Florence! It was exactly like the pictures. Check-in was a breeze and our rep provided us with great recommendations. We had a small issue with a leaky toilet, but they sent someone out immediately and it was fixed very quickly. We were within walking distance of so many wonderful things. We truly enjoyed our home away from home here.
With only one night to stay in Florence, we wanted to find a place that was comfortable enough to sleep 4 and close enough to the action without being in the middle of it. San Giovanni house fit the bill on paper and in person! It was very spacious, and having 2 separate full bathrooms was fantastic. The rooftop patio was a very pleasant surprise! The check in process was convenient and easy. The only negative comment would be that the beds were very very hard. Otherwise, perfect stay!
This was a charming apartment for our staying in Florence. Unit was very clean with an awesome view from the top patio. This may not be suitable for people with physical limitations as you actually have to climb three flights of stairs before you get to the apartment door, and then a short flight into the actual apartment. Communication was great with the host. We were met by Erica, who was very friendly and helpful with directions to restaurants, etc.
Loved the stay - the apartment was lovely, the area was lovely and stay was pleasant. Pejman the communicator and facilitator of the property was extremely helpful and kind. However, it would be wonderful to have an Air Conditioner in hot and humid weather.
They only complaint i would have about this place is it doesnt have AC. They dont say that they do so no worries there but we did stay here in July during a heat wave which made things a little hot. This apartment is amazing would stay here again, just a little outside the main part of Florence (10 min walk) right by an old city wall. Great food close. Great managers, very responsive. Very cool roof deck.

Cozy stay
Great property with views from windows and terrace. Small kitchen with working fridge. Big spaces to hang out and spaces between bedrooms and bathrooms. However, this unit DOES NOT have AC. The thermostat from the old unit read 33C/88F upon arrival. We had to open windows and use fans provided. Slightly uncomfortable temp for sleeping but overall, good property.
Great stay at San Giovanni house. We liked the location and enjoyed the more local feel of the Oltrarno neighborhood. Best part of the house is the roof patio to take in fresh air and church bells ringing and views. Easy walk from the train station. Highly recommend!
We had a really great 2 week stay in this apartment! It was clean and spacious and in the perfect location away from the hustle and bustle yet extremely close to the most amazing restaurants. Being American, we would have preferred the beds to be a bit less firm, but we managed. We also stayed two weeks and cooked quite a bit - a bit of a tight kitchen with not many items to cook with, but we made it work! The hosts were very accommodating and it was a great stay.
This is a fantastic apartment. Spacious 2 bedrooms on a quiet street, with two showers and a bath and a functional kitchen.
The location is great -- very near terrific food -- including great pastries and two excellent gelaterie.
