Great location
Located in San Lorenzo this apartment is the perfect location. Being on the second floor with no lift was a bit tricky for us (3 females) with large bags but we managed. Not being meet on arrival was a little usual but there are notes all over the apartment in english explaining things. You need to ask the apartment manager to put the heating on. The apartment is equipped with everything we needed and everything worked well. The second bathroom is more of a wet room but worked really well and dried quickly when the window was open. It is also a little dark inside during the day but this is completely understandable considering the location and the era of original construction. I would stay here again.

Great location Loved being so close to the centre
Lighting is very dull so difficult to read & spend time in the rooms. Living room very small. Toaster would have been an added bonus. Sabrina was very helpful & answered any queries promptly.

The apartment is in the perfect location, you were able to walk everywhere and enjoy the beautiful sites of Florence. It is very clean, with washer and dryer and the walk up the stairs each day was like we were experiencing Florence as if we lived there. Sabrina was a great communicator, all the way up to our check-in., Very thorough with helping me to sign into WhatApp for messaging and calling. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Great Apartment
The apartment is located close to the train station and all the sites are easy to walk to. The check in was very easy. You do need access to text messaging to do the check in. Just couldn’t use the ESIM card. The apartment is on the 2nd floor and there is no elevator. Not an issue for us but might be for some. The apartment is clean, spacious and has a well equipped kitchen. It was great having both a washer and dryer. I would recommend this apartment for your stay in Florence.

Comfort in the Heart of Florence
We liked that the living space was all on one level (albeit on the 3rd floor; considered the 2nd floor in Europe). Plenty of room for two couples, with one true full bath and another "wet room" bath). Perfect location, within walking distance of all the major attractions. Would stay again.

Great stay, walked out the front door into the hustle and bustle of a busy pedestrian only street. Very close to many eateries and markets. Walking distance to Duomo and chapels etc. Authentic Book a Batch, comfy beds but ensuite in main bedroom was very very small and compact. Did the job at the end of the day .

Excellent location
The location of this apartment is excellent! All major sites and the train station are just a short walk from this unit. The unit is quiet, yet the street below is lively and has many restaurants. There is a good breakfast place just down the street. The unit is spacious and the air conditioning was great during the heat of the summer. Our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenagers) stayed her quite comfortably. Sabrina was excellent and responded quickly to all questions asked. She has a nice binder with good information in the unit and guidebooks to look through on her shelf. We had a great stay here and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! Thank you Sabrina!!

Perfect Stay
Only three nights in Florence so we needed the perfect location and this apartment didn’t disappoint. Walking distance to the train station, loads of shopping and food galore. We walked to the other side of the river as well. Anything you need in the apartment and worked perfectly for myself and two children with room to spare. Communication with the host was spot on. Nothing negative to say here and would 100% rent again!

Fabulous!
This apartment was the perfect location - close to the Duomo and the train station. We were easily able to walk everywhere we wanted to go and with several train rides (for day trips) being close to the train station was ideal! The street was fun and festive, but the apartment was extremely quiet! We slept great and loved having two bathrooms. Communication was fabulous and she was lovely to work with. This was the perfect spot for our family of five and we would definitely stay here again!

Clean, quiet, charming, and perfect location, we were able to walk from the train station to the apartment in about 5 mins and the street was bustling with coffee shops and restaurants, nice and bright at night, very safe feeling, and when we stepped into the apartment it was very quiet, also it was very close to everything you want to see, we would stay here again for sure.

Exceeded our expectations in many ways!
Our stay in this Florence apartment exceeded our expectations in many ways. First, it was exactly as described. It was clean, orderly, and in very good condition. The air conditioning was especially nice. Check-in has never been more clear and easy. Information about the apartment is clearly laid out in a notebook. Read the notebook!!! The air conditioning was wonderful. Second, the location is wonderful. It's close to the train station and tram lines T1 / T2. This is ideal if you arrive/depart by train or airplane. Easy and inexpensive. The location of this apartment is critical . . . not just for arrivals and departures. This apartment is located a short walk away from the key sites in Florence (e.g., Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, Academia Gallery). Getting a taxi is nearly impossible if you don't have an Italian phone number. Too few taxis and too many people. The two times we had to get a taxi because the distance was too great to walk (a business appointment 5+ miles away) we were able to find assistance from locals. Outside of my business appointment, Florence was easily accessible on foot and no taxis were necessary. Third (and last), communication with the host was timely and informative. We felt we were genuinely welcome. The one question we had during our stay (Where's the dryer?) was responded to immediately. A great apartment and we would definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay! Location was not far from the train station. Shops & restaurants near the apartment. The apartment was quiet and had everything we needed.

Perfect location
A friend and I enjoyed our stay at this comfortable and perfectly situated apartment. Less than 10 minutes slow walk from the train station, and the central market is just around the corner. It’s a quieter part of the city, and especially quiet at night in the apartment. We will recommend this apartment to anyone coming to Firenza.
