The house has 3 wide bedrooms and 3 bathrooms (2 of which ensuite), a large living with a comfortable double sofabed, and can accomodate up to 8 persons.
Located in Via degli Alfani, an old street that links the Sant’Ambrogio and Santa Maria Novella districts, and full of memories of its long past, the apartment overlooks almost entirely an internal courtyard, reason why it preserves absolute peace and quiet, even though it’s in the most lively part of the city center.
Totally restored and returned to new life, the apartment is wide, tastly decorated with elegance and attention to details, creating a perfect mix between ancient and modernity.
Perfect for families’ and friends’ holidays, Sweet Home L’Accademia is equipped with all the comfort which will make your holiday an experience to tell.
Entering the apartment you can immediately feel the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere: the parquet floor, that cover the entire apartment, warms the environment, and the light colors of the furniture, give you a true relaxing sensation, to charge your energies after a day of visits and strolling in the hustle and bustle of the city.
On the right you will find the large and bright living room, furnished with a stylish sofa that easily turns, if needed, in a comfortable double bed to welcome also the biggest groups, TV, coffee table and 2 Louis xv style armchairs, brought back to new beauty by the expert hand of the owner, who customized all the rooms with her own paintings and mirrors.
Next to the living room, the luminous kitchen-dinner room overlooking Via degli Alfani, is a mix of style and sobriety, furnished with a beautiful crystal table, chairs and a modern kitchenette equipped with all you may need to prepare and taste peacefully your breakfast, lunch and dinner everytime you wish (oven, microwave, dish washer, moka, kettle etc.)
From the entrance, a bright hall leads to the sleeping area: on the right there is the first double bedroom with a little desk and wide windows overlooking an inner court.
Opposite the first bedroom there is the master bathroom with elegant marble tiles and a wide shower.
At the end of the hall on the right you will find another double bedroom with ensuite bathroom and on the left another room with twinbeds, that if needed turn into a double one, and a complete bathroom ensuite.
All the bedrooms are furnished with clothes stands, desks or dresser, darkening curtains.
Elegant paintings and mirrors enrich the walls of the entire apartment, creating colourful notes all around.
Wi-fi and aircon cover all the apartment.

Amazing location
This place was amazing! Perfect location, quiet at night but so close to everything in the city, walking everywhere was a breeze from the apartments location. The beds were great and everything was super clean. My credit card kept getting denied when the host tried to run it and she was so patient with us as we were having trouble getting our bank to accept the charge. I would definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!

Family trip for Christmas
This apartment was perfect! Having the space for a group of 6 adult sized individuals it was perfect! Both in bed space and bathrooms. Location was ideal, close to many attractions but also outside the main tourist zone. The communication and ease of access to the property was such a blessing amid the chaos of travel and details. Only note about the property was that there were not screens on windows and even in winter when we opened the windows to get a bit of fresh air we were inundated with mosquitos. Covered in bites wasn't exactly the souvenir we were hoping for! :) But overall this location was great! would absolutely recommend, but suggest bringing some mosquito spray.

Clean, comfortable, and convenient
Our family of 5 stayed here for 3 nights near Christmas. The apartment is as advertised, was very clean with high end bathroom and kitchen furnishings and tasteful decor throughout. The beds were comfortable, rooms had lots of natural light, and the common area is quite large - so large that it could probably hold another couch or a few more comfortable chairs, which could be a nice addition. The location is also great, less than a minute from the Academia Gallery and convenient walking distance to most other notable sites in Florence. We were able to check ourselves in and the owners even let us access the apartment early once their cleaners were finished. We had no problems during our stay but the owners were easily accessible via WhatsApp. Overall, this was a great place to stay! A few things to note. The apartment is on the second floor and the 3 flights of steps up from the street are very steep, which were difficult to climb for 1 member of our party who is older. Also, we visited in December and although there were multiple radiators, the apartment tended to be cold (we were wrapping ourselves in our blankets even during the day) but we are from Phoenix which is obviously a warmer climate.

Fantastic apartment in a fantastic location
Wonderful apartment. Great location with attractions all within easy walk. Does need another sofa and soundproofing - we had a noise complaint from downstairs and we are not particularly boisterous. Other than that- perfecto

Tourism has always been my passion and my "motto" is: feel at home, even far away from home.
Moved by a great love for travel and hospitality, I like to know new places and learn about different cultures and people.
But I also love to show you the beauty of Florence & Tuscany, how the locals "feel" this enchantable place, just to make you live unforgettable experiences to tell!
We look forward to welcoming you!
