About this property

Cynthia's garden- Apartment with private garden

Modern and cozy apartment with large private garden, located in Florence in the Santa Croce area. Recommended for 4 people, it can accommodate up to 6 for short periods by using a sofa bed in the living area. It has 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom.

DESCRIPTION
The apartment is located on the ground floor (two steps down) of a building on Via Ghibellina, a very lively street (shops, restaurants, theater ..) very close to Piazza Santa Croce, therefore in the heart of Florence and a few minutes walk away from the main monuments. At the same time it is located not far from the ring roads and close to a large underground car park (subject to charges).

The apartment is very quiet because it is located in an internal courtyard, and has a nice private garden furnished with tables, chairs and deck chairs, excellent opportunity for a moment of relaxation, a drink or an outdoor dinner.
Inside the garden there is a small laundry room that contains the washing machine and the dryer.

The apartment, recently renovated, is modern and located on two levels (65 sqm). It is ideal to accommodate 4 people, but can accommodate up to 6 thanks to the double sofa bed which is perfect for children.
On the first level, open on the garden, there is the living area (kitchen, with dishwasher, foldaway in a large wardrobe, extendable dining table for 6 people, comfortable sofa bed 140 cm wide and SmartTV), a double bedroom (non-separable bed, 160 cm wide, bed side tables and a wardrobe), a small corridor and a complete bathroom with shower.
Going up then 11 rather narrow steps you arrive at the loft (ceiling height 180 cm) where there is the second double bedroom (inseparable bed, 160 cm wide, large chest of drawers and wall hanger) that overlooks the living area thanks to a glass structure that helps to give light to the upper floor.

Independent heating and air conditioning

Garden maintenance: we inform you that the gardener will generally go to the garden after 6.00 pm (on the weekend he could come at different times) to water the plants as needed depending on the weather conditions. Obviously it won't water if guests are in the garden.

GUEST ACCESS
Guests have access to the whole house, the garden and the laundry, full use of the kitchen, sheets and towels provided.

INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
We will personally welcome guests to the apartment for key collection and to show the amenities. We don't live there so we need to set the check-in time in advance.
In case we cannot be available personally, we'll activate a self the check-in procedure, about which we'll send instructions in advance.

OTHER THINGS TO HIGHLIGHT
-Excluded from the price: Tourist tax of € 6 per person per night, for the first 7 nights of stay only for those over 12 years. This fee will be paid upon check-in. For more information see the multilingual information available at home.
-In case of check-in in presence from 21.00 to 24.00 will be applied an additional cost of € 30, from 24.00 to 3.00 the cost will be € 50.
-The linen change for long stays is done every 7 days. Extra linen is charged to the guest.
-For 4 guests we mean 2 double beds, any need to use the sofa bed must be notified in advance and will be charged € 25 for extra linen, to be paid at check-in.

HOW TO GET:
If you arrive in Florence by plane you can reach the apartment by taxi. Taxis apply a flat rate to and from the airport: €28 standard, €30 on holidays, €32 at night (from 10pm to 6am). If you arrive by train you have 3 options: walking (25 minutes), taxi (queue at the station exit), or electric bus C2, from the Orti Oricellari stop, which is found when exiting the station on the right side, direction Beccaria, stop Malborghetto.
If you arrive by car, the nearest motorway exit is Firenze Sud. However, you should know that the house is located within the ZTL (limited traffic zone, active weekdays from 07:30 to 20:00 and Saturday from 07:30 to 16:00 and in summer, from first Thursday of April to the first Sunday of October, also on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 23:00 to 03:00 the next morning), so pay close attention to road signs of restricted access and telematic doors. The telematic access door to get to the apartment is in via dell'Agnolo. Then we advise you to park in the nearest underground pay parking, which is the S. Ambrogio car park or, if this is sold out, the Piazza Beccaria car park, just farther away. We inform you that these car parks do not offer a daily rate, but only an hourly rate.

Another possibility is to book a private garage, which has the possibility, by signaling your license plate, to allow you to go through the telematic door without taking a fine. The nearest garages are the Bargello garage, in via Ghibellina 170 / r and the Garage Verdi, in, in via Giovanni Da Verrazzano 9.

Great apartment and great location
We had a great stay at Cynthia’s garden apartment. The location was fantastic. Sabrina provided helpful information for a private parking garage close by. The apartment was very cute and perfect for our family of four. It was very quiet, tucked back in an interior garden area. The beds were also very comfortable. Sabrina was responsive and made the check in/check out process very easy.

Great place to stay in Florence!
We typically stay in hotels, but found this experience was perfect for our family for our trip to Florence. The apartment gave us a welcome escape from the heat and crowds. The amenities met all our needs and Sabrina greeted us in person to explain everything to our our minds at ease. Definitely recommend!

Garden gem in the heart of the city.
Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay in this cute home within 15-20 minutes of everything we wanted to do and see in Florence. This hosts were responsive and the home was clean, beds were comfortable. Our children (18 & 20) stayed upstairs. If you have little ones, I would be careful having them upstairs as the stairs are steep and narrow but with a good railing. Overall, we had a perfect stay and it was a nice way to start our vacation.

nice place in center
Nice as advertised - roomy, comfortable and nice garden. Very private and quiet most of the time. sunny mornings are pleasant. Good bath and upstairs loft, while very steep and not too private would be good for younger (< 40) mates. Only one bath however. Downside is the noisy neighbor..who screams for 10-20 minutes every few days. What one might call a "fishwife" screaming - screaming at her family and their 4-6 year old who squalls most evenings. She is nice however -we waved at each other as she leaned out their window. Since we don't speak Italian we suspect it is money issues and no aural evidence of bodily harm. Oh and the clothes dryer is maddening to use.

Charming and comfortable
From the first minute when Sabrina met us for an early check-in, we were charmed by this apartment and impressed by the great hospitality of our host. The apartment is exactly as it looks in the pictures, and it had all the right amenities. It was also very clean and fresh smelling. The garden was an added bonus and we took advantage of relaxing in it on a beautiful afternoon as a break from seeing the sights. The location is also very convenient to everything. And the beds were very comfortable.

So cute, clean and cozy!
We recently stayed at Cynthia’s Garden and it was perfect for the 5 of us (4 adults and 1 small child). The location is excellent and completely walkable to everything. The rooms are super clean and the kitchen had everything we needed for our short stay. We were especially happy about the bathroom, which following a few stays with tiny showers, we realized was large and spacious. Highly recommend!

Great apartment
The apartment is in a less touristy part of town, but within easy walking distance to all attractions, a grocery store and fantastic restaurants. The apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and my 18 year old loved the privacy of the loft bedroom. Sabrina communicated with us about everything we needed for check-in, met us to give us a tour of the property, and checked on us periodically throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better hostess or place to call home for the week.

Lovely modern apartment
Modern, clean, stylish, efficient use of space, well appointed and laid out. Mattress was very comfortable, everything felt well-maintained. Only issue was sometimes the water would briefly go cold and I’d need to step out for a moment. Sabrina was super helpful and thoughtful. Highly recommend this option, would stay here again if we ever come back to Florence.
