Stefano was a great host and met us at the property earlier than expected. Before arrival he was able to give us a clear directions and give us a good idea what we could expect. The property was as we had determined on the site and everything was working perfectly. The air conditioner is worked well and the place was extremely well located and easy to get back-and-forth into the main part of town. Would highly recommend this to anybody that meets the room to be able to enjoy Florence.

Our vacation in Florence was truly exceptional, thanks to a beautifully stunning apartment and an incredibly outstanding host. If you're looking into this property, we highly recommend taking advantage of this opportunity!Overall, the apartment was exceptionally clean and modernized, while still maintaining its historical charm. You can tell that so much pride goes into ensuring high-quality touches from the furniture, beds, linens, towels, toiletries, fragrance diffusers, lighting, etc. We were two families traveling together (two couples with children) and we loved the generous space, numerous bathrooms, and fantastic location!What we also appreciated was how thoughtful and communicative our host, Stefano, was during each phase of the process from registration all the way through check-out. Some short-term rentals feel transactional but our host was genuinely attentive, responsive, and welcoming. Before arrival, he asked about our preferred room arrangements so everything could be perfectly prepared. When we arrived, we were greeted at the building and given a detailed tour of the apartment. As parents of a 2 year old, we were incredibly grateful for the adorable crib setup, bathtub, and changing pad in our bedroom. There was even a high chair provided in the kitchen and toys in the living room, too.Our families still talk about how this apartment was our favorite place to stay and we would book it again in a heartbeat if we ever travel back to Florence!

Knowing that the children also enjoyed the special touches we prepared for them makes me particularly happy! Hope to welome you again. Warm Regards Stefano

Beautiful and convenient

Host was very easy to communicate with and accommodating for everyone - from my young nephew to my 84 year old mother in law. The residence was in a great location and within walking distance of all the main sites in historical Florence. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and recently updated and clean. The only downside was it was a holiday weekend and a little loud with people celebrating in the streets, but just a minor inconvenience and shows how centrally located this residence is. I highly recommend this for anyone traveling, especially those with a family.
