This home was everything that we needed for Florence! Charming, updated, and clean. The neighborhood felt safe and was walkable. It is not in the city center, which we liked. Tram, grocery, restaurants were nearby. We used the tram or we walked to the areas we wanted to see.
Really enjoyed our stay here! Communication was excellent with Richard. It is about a 30 minute walk to the Duomo and also to the train station. Very clean with all amenities. It is also by a grocery store and coffee shop which was great! Thank you Rita! Your place was perfect for us!
Very clean property spacious and comfortable perfect for our large group. Close by to a grocery store and corner market where you can get drinks, coffee, and snacks. Right up the street from a fresh produce stand and outdoor vendors market. Very near to a wonderful local restaurant Fratelli briganti.
Location was perfect. Place was well decorated. Tram station was just a short walk away. Bar/coffee and Pastries was a 10 yard walk from the front door. Grocery store was 100 yards around the corner fro the place. Easy 20 minute walk to downtown if you don't want to take the tram.
Thank you for taking the time to write your review Mark. I look forward to welcoming you back.

Thank you for your kind words! We strive to do our best and are looking forward to welcoming you back. A presto!
Enjoyed our stay in this home - very spacious and comfortable. Everything was as described in the listing. Great communication from host & smooth, easy check-in. Everything we needed was here. Also, short walk to metro for quick travel into the heart of Florence.
We LOVED Rita’s property. She truly thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and functional. Fully functioning kitchen, great living space and spacious bedrooms. The neighborhood was great and lots of good spots within walking distance. Would highly recommend for any group needing a place in Italy!
First I just want to state that Rita and Richard are GREAT hosts! They respond so quickly when asked any questions. Next the place is just so very nice and feels like a home. Especially after a long day of tours it was so nice to come back to this place and crash. Thank you again Rita & Richard for making Florence very special!
This was a nice apartment for our stay in Florence. Rita and Richard were both excellent at staying in touch and ensuring we had everything we needed. The apartment was spacious although the bathrooms were quite small, especially the master bath. The neighborhood was quiet with a few essentials close by including a grocery, bar, pastries, etc. There were not many other restaurants without walking 10 minutes or so. Richard was exceptionally helpful with arranging for taxis each day. He also had a couple of excellent restaurant suggestions which we used and greatly enjoyed. Although the neighborhood seemed quiet and safe, my husband especially appreciated the robust locks on the apartment door.

Hi Libby. Wish you would have asked for more towels! We always provide extras. Grazie!
Our adult family of 5 had a comfortable stay here. Good location if you like a light walk with the Duomo and museums about a mile away. Apartment was VERY clean, comfortable beds, and well stocked kitchen with all we needed to cook an authentic Italian meal. Rita answered all questions quickly so no complaints about anything. Would stay here again!!
Rita was a very responsive host answered questions immediately and went out her way to make sure we were all comfortable even got us a cab and told me about the taxi app which was very useful would recommend her place to anyone Thank You again Rita
Wonderful apartment minutes from Florence city-centre
Rita was a wonderful host so responsive & accomodating. The apartment was very clean and comfortable & just a 10 minute walk & 10 minute tram ride to the city centre of Florence. We loved that it was away from the hustle & bustle of downtown & felt very safe. A little fruit , veggie & clothing market is held daily nearby & grocery store around the corner. The beds are super comfortable. A fantastic choice if visiting Florence. My sister & I loved this place.

Very comfortable and bright apartment in a quiet neighborhood
The apartment is a nice 20 minute walk to center of town. Everything in the apartment is well cared for and very clean. Richard, the local contact, is most helpful for pointing out places and taking care of needs. Thank you Richard and Rita we had a very pleasant stay.
