Very clean and nice apartment. Great location close to many of the attractions, and an easy walk to the others. Lots of good restaurants and shopping nearby. The host was very gracious and easy to work with.
My husband and I had a two night stay in May 2025. The property was beautiful and historic, well maintained and easy access to everything we wanted to see in Florence. Highly recommend!
This place was exactly what we hoped for! Very centrally located (you could not ask for a better location!), authentic Florence living experience (the other apartments were occupied by people who live there not tourists), and comfortable for the two of us. Communication with the host was easy and supportive. If you are looking for a simple, convenient, and comfortable apartment--we highly recommend this one!
We had a great experience staying at the apartment. The location was perfect. We walked everywhere including to and from the train station with our luggage. Check in was easy and the place had so much charm. Very quiet and a great retreat to come back to after a long day seeing the sights. Would stay again
The host went above-and-beyond. Highly recommended
Outstanding service. Our host went above and beyond to ensure our stay in Florence was special experience. Thank you for your acconodations, Christina!
The apartment is so charming and such a wonderful location. We had a couple of questions and Christina was very quick to respond and also provide us with some wonderful recommendations. Magical !

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Great location and had all the amenities. Very clean. Comfortable bed and good shower. The worst thing is that it took us about an hour to get in and the process was cumbersome. The hosts texted back later but were not readily available to help.There is an unpleasant odor in the building. The info in the apartment explained that there is nothing that can be done about that as it's a very old building with old sewers. Once we turned on the air conditioner, the odor was better.
What a lovely apartment in Florence! Plenty of space, lots of character, and most importantly, the location was absolutely perfect. It was close to so many phenomenal neighborhood restaurants. The best home base for walking around and enjoying the beautiful city of Florence. Thank you for having us!
Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The location was perfect, house was clean and gorgeous, and the communication throughout was very clear.
Thank you! Would recommend to a friend!
This is a beautiful well-appointed apartment in a historic building, in an excellent location just a few blocks from the Duomo. We stayed four nights and could easily walk to all the major sights and restaurants.
The building reflects the history of the location. The apartment was furnished to match the classic architecture and we enjoyed modern amenities. It’s a beautifully furnished home in a quiet part of Florence. We were able to walk to all our destinations. It was a treat to stay here!
Spacious, clean apartment close to everything. Short walk to Piazza della Signoria with Neptune fountain and Arno River at Ponte Vecchio Bridge. Restaurants and shops all around. We walked with our luggage from Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.
This property was situated between the Arno river and train station, right next to Ufizze so a great location. The host was easy to reach and the property was as advertised. The bathroom/shower could stand to be updated; instructions for the washer and the microwave did not work. The bed was very comfortable. Overall a good experience.
This apartment was a great location for us in the pedestrian area. All of the museums, cathedrals, shopping and dining were within easy walking distance. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. And it was located on a quiet side street. It was nice to have a washing machine too. Communicating with the host was easy and they were very responsive.
You can’t get better than this location wise! We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this magical Renaissance apartment. It was spacious, clean, and the communication with Christina was excellent. She always responded in minutes. There was a plumbing issue with the apartment that was fixed within hours, with no impact to our stay thanks to her excellent communication. Would HIGHLY recommend staying here for your trip to Florence!! Also- very very cool to stay in a building this old! So much history.
We so enjoyed our stay in a medieval property. It was well furnished, quite clean, and instructions to get there, and how to maintain it were clear. Any noise from previous reviews is no longer an issue. Host was accommodating of our 12 month old. Communication could have been better; sometimes it was great, and sometimes I was left hanging with information that would have been helpful in packing for our trip/cleaning up.

It was okay
It was okay. All the VRBO’s I’ve stayed at have been wonderful. This one had a 9.8 and I don’t know how. I had asked in the first communication with the host to leave sheets for the fold out couch and there were no sheets. The mattress pad was dirty on the fold out couch. Dish towels were stained.Just not exactly as the pictures showed. The location was wonderful and the pillows were good. That’s the best I have to say about it
The apartment's location can't be beat! It is on a quiet side street in the old city within walking distance to the Duomo, the Uffizi, and many other sites and restaurants. Its a period apartment, clean, comfortable. It is on the second floor with 30 steps to the door so may not work for those who can't climb stairs. The landlady, Cristina, was very responsive. We suggested to her that the apartment would benefit from a manual with recommended restaurants, locations of markets, TV and A/C instructions, and perhaps a map. We would stay there again!
I love my little apartment in the middle of the historic district of Florence. Everything was needed as a pin, and I loved the wooden beams above my head and the little walk up window overlooking the tiny side street.
I was also grateful that the air conditioning in the bedroom worked, as it actually reached 100° one of the days I stayed there.
But it was convenient enough that I could go out in the morning and do something fun grab a caffè e il cornetto, and then slip back into the apartment to chill and relax during the hottest part of the day. Then I could go back out for the late afternoon and evening with that late dinner in the beautiful Florence evening..
Excellent location very central to all the main museums & wonderful restaurants!!Apartment was very clean. Bed very comfortable and nice hot shower!!Would stay again!Thank you!! Ciao
