It was definitely a cozy nest. But perfect for 2 nights. We had one hiccup but the owner was quick to help and fix the issue.

Sabrina was a very kind and thoughtful host. The apartment was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. While it is small, it was comfortable for our short stay while visiting Florence. We appreciated the attention to detail. It may feel a little small for a longer stay with two people, but it worked well for our trip. We would recommend it to other travelers.

Great location...very clean...easy working with the host...

Loved Florence and this property suits the bill--great location just down from the Duomo...for older people (like me) the bedroom takes a little getting used to...but you can do it!

Il Nido

We loved staying here! It has everything you need, it’s a 10 minute walk to the Duomo or the river, and Sabrina was very helpful giving us restaurant suggestions. We would absolutely come back to stay.

Florence Apartment

The apartment is in a great location just on the outskirts of historic Florence with all the major historical landmarks within walking distance. The restaurant recommendations from our hosts were top notch and easily some of, if not the best, food we’ve had on our trip in Italy

Simple, Pleasant Stay

Our stay here was nice! Sabrina communicated with us before check-in, throughout our stay to see how we were doing, and the day of our checkout. She was kind and knowledgeable. The place is small, simple, and quiet. It is close to several small markets and restaurants. It is a very manageable walk from everything for an able-bodied person. Great for travelers seeking a simple, quiet place. Would not recommend for travelers seeking luxury nor for less physically-able people.

Very small apartment near Piazza Santa Croce. Easy to walk around Florence. So many restaurants and sites nearby. Good location if you dont plan to spend a lot of time in the apartment. You should be young and nimble to stay here, though. The bed loft area has very low ceilings so that you have to crawl i to bed not to hit your head. Also, staircase is a little dicey and not recommended for anyone lacking very sure feet. Lastly, front door was a bit of a challenge. Remember to slam door shut so that the locking mechanism at the bottom of the door can engage.

Amazing little city hideaway!

The nido was perfect for our city break; nice and cosy with everything you need when you want to spend most of your time out and about. Felt very secure and safe and Sabrina was so hospitable and made us feel very welcome in Firenze. Would definitely recommend!
