A Week in Florence
Throughout the booking process Chiara & Gianni were both very helpful and responded to my queries very quickly. We were greeted on arrival by Marianna who is the property manager, Neil’s wife. After showing us the apartment she kindly offered to walk us to the Duomo so that we would get our bearing. We had a lovely week in Florence and really enjoyed the apartment which is very well located. On our last day Neil assisted by ordering our taxi for us, one large enough for 4 of our suitcases. Being able to contact them whenever we needed assistance made our holiday so much more enjoyable. The only problem we experienced was the low water pressure & the dwindling hot water in the evening,

Felt Like Home!
My four friends and I enjoyed our stay in this spacious, bright, clean apartment. The location is a quiet neighborhood with restaurants, bakeries, and the best gelato in Florence. It is a short walk to everything. The apartment has very comfortable beds, pillows and soft linen. The kitchen is lovely as are the bathrooms. Our host was responsive to our questions. If you’re lucky enough to book a stay here you won’t be disappointed.

Nice Florence Apartment
Our stay here was wonderful. Communication with the host was easy and fast. The apartment was clean and bright. WIFI worked very well. The location is great. Everything is within walking distance. The biggest challenge was loading and unloading the car. The street out front is very narrow and busy. We had to park around the corner. But it was a short walk and not difficult at all. Florence is amazing, and this is an excellent place to stay.

Loved it!
I didn't realize how nice it would be to be away from the touristy crowds. Being across in the river is so lovely. Fun the wander these streets and find amazing shops and bakeries. And thank you to the other reviewer who mentioned the nearby wine window - that was fun! Very easy to just walk across the bridge to be at all the spots on your to do list. The apartment is very spacious and quiet. I would definitely stay here again.

Loved the location
we came to Florence to visit our daughter who was studying there. The apartment was spacious and very comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and the apartment was quiet. Location is good, a short walk across the river to get to the main Florence attractions like the Duomo and the Uffuzi, and on the same side of the river from the Plaza Michaelangelo and Plaza Vecchio. We had a couple of great meals at il Santo Bevitore which is less than a block away and the gelato around the corner was one of my daughter's favorite places in Florence (she has tasted many!). Coming in the hosts were very helpful in troubleshooting some transportation difficulties we had. Overall a great stay in Florence!

Florence Stay
It was a spacious apartment, very clean and close to everything! As a new traveler (first time Italy) and also new to AirB&B our other two places were super helpful to us tourists. I was just told to check their website here but even that was not that helpful - or maybe I expected more because the other places were very helpful. Thank you for sharing your home with our family - it was beautiful as is your city & country

Great Apartment Great Neighborhood
A group of 6 adults stayed for eight days at Soderini Palace this past July. The apartment was located in a great location. Several cafes, restaurants, and local shops in close proximity. The Ponte Vecchio was about 10 minute walk and all other major landmarks (Duomo) was about a 20 minute walk. We were next to the Piazza Santo Spirto where we found some great local restaurants. We were 2 blocks from a wine window (Babae). The apartment was spacious and very well stocked with everything we needed especially air conditioning as it was very hot. There is a small lift since the apartment is on the 3rd floor but most of the group took the stairs. Check in was very easy and the hosts responded quickly to my questions ahead of my arrival. We would definitely stay at this apartment again if we return to Florence.

Florence 24
We enjoyed are stay very much. The apartment was perfect for us and the location was excellent. It was well air conditioned which was vital with 100+ temperature during our visit. Would definitely stay there again! The hosts and Chiara left a helpful booklet with information regarding taxi service etc. The only surprise was that I had to pay a special tax when I arrived that I wasn’t aware of as I thought the rental was paid in full. Cash only. I think I should have been aware of that addition so could have been better prepared for the fee.

Great place for a family! Good location!
The place fit seven of us very comfortably. A/C units in each room and throughout the apartment kept us very cool during high 90’s temperatures. Very cute place with all of the amenities to cook large meals. Good location with restaurants nearby and a supermarket around the corner. Good communication with the owners. Allowed us to enjoy our stay in Florence in comfort!

Wonderful Apartment in Florence
This is a wonderful apartment within a 15 minute walk of all the sites in Florence, in fact, it is one of the best VRBO rentals in which we've ever stayed. The building is safe and the apartment is stocked with everything you need. The owners were patient and answered all of our questions to make our stay enjoyable. The lift was greatly appreciated after a long day and there are plenty of places to grab something to eat within a few steps. Try the gelato on the corner by the bridge. Highly recommend. Thanks to Gianni, Chiara and Nelani for everything!
