Charming apartment in incredible location

The apartment is a real gem. It is very well appointed and extremely comfortable (great beds!). It balances charm with modern conveniences. Sitting on a side street, it is surprisingly quiet even though it is so centrally located. The host, Simona, is absolutely wonderful and goes out of her way to welcome and support guests during their visit. If you want to stay in the heart of the city, this is your place!

Great Spot in Florence - Center of Town

We had a great stay in Florence. The apartment is in a perfect part of town - very close to everything. Short walk to the Duomo, to the museums, to Ponte Vecchio and Santa Croce. Restaurants everywhere nearby. Small apartment with two bedrooms - great for us as we were traveling with our two teenagers. AC works. Small kitchen - if you were cooking it would work just fine. WiFi worked well I did a couple of work calls from the apartment. Simona and her sister were easy to deal with. Area felt safe. They do have washing machine so we got some laundry done. Overall we would absolutely stay here again.

Absolutely wonderful apartment and owner

Our 6 day stay here was wonderful. Simona was very welcoming and helpful upon arrival. And she stayed in touch to make sure everything was going well. The apartment is fantastic. Great location, very clean and spacious and steps from the Piazza della Signoria. It's also on a side street so very quiet. Don't look any further if you're a group/family of 4 looking for a place to stay in Florence.

We are a family of 2 adults and 3 kids (17,15.11) and we all adored our stay at this property. We had a double bed in one room and the kids were in 3 x singles in the other room with their own ensuite. Separate lounge area was perfect to chill out in. Checkin was simple and owner was easy to communicate with and highly responsive. Highly recommend as also great location.

A perfect stay in Florence

To celebrate our 55th anniversary with our daughter & husband. This property is an excellent location to everything you want to see and do in Florence. Our hostess Simona welcomed us and provided excellent information, tips and arranged a taxi back to the airport. The only thing to be aware of is the AC in. The bedrooms is not very strong. Small problem. Would definitely stay here again.

Incredible apartment, location and owner!

The location of this apartment is fantastic! It is right in the middle of things and a short walk from all the major tourist sites but is also quiet and tucked in a small side street. Simona was well organized and thorough and very easy to communicate with. The apartment is well stocked, comfortable and very chic. Every detail was considered including coffee, umbrellas to borrow, shampoo and even a treat and water bottle left for us to enjoy. We enjoyed this stay fully - would highly recommend

Perfect apartment in the heart of Florence

We had a wonderful stay in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment. Simona was the perfect host! We were early for check in and Simona met us at the property, made sure it had been cleaned appropriately, and allowed us to enter early. She provided accurate and fabulous details for parking, and we parked in a garage just steps from our door. The apartment was exactly as advertised, clean, and comfortable, decorated with beautiful furniture and family heirlooms. The location is absolutely perfect, in walking distance from everything! I would highly recommend this property and will definitely stay again next time we visit Florence!

Wonderful apartment in the heart of Florence

We were very excited about this apartment based on the listing and were not disappointed. It is a beautiful flat which met the needs of our family of five. Beds were comfortable and temperature was cool on hot July summer days. The location could not be better as it is minutes walk from Piazza Della Signoria, Uffizi gallery and Ponte Vecchio. Both Francesca and Simona were very easy to communicate with and answered any question we had promptly. We would recommend this unit to anybody travelling to Florence.

About the host

Host profile image
I am Simona, a florentine in love with her city! I am also a traveller that likes to feel home away from home

That's why I have, together with my mom and my siter, appointed this apartment thinking about what I would have loved to find in a home away from home..

Why they chose this property

We already owned the apartment besides, so when the owners of this unit decided to sell it we thought it was a great idea to purchase this one too!

We love the area, so in the centre of the centre but yet quiet and really close to everything
