There is very little sound privacy between the two bedrooms. Perhaps look into how to make upstair bedroom more sound proof

Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. We are very glad you enjoyed the apartment overall, and we truly appreciate your comment regarding the sound between the bedrooms. We are always looking for ways to improve our guests’ comfort, and your suggestion is very valuable to us however we do anticipate this issue by mentioning in the description that there is no door between the master bedroom and the rest of the apartment. Furthermore this feature can be seen clearly in the photo gallery as we understand and appreciate it is important for guests to know exactly what they are booking. We hope to see you again soon in Florence and maybe you can stay at one of other 12 apartments in Florence city centre.

Beautiful apartment, great location!

The apartment itself was amazing! Very clean, comfortable! Great views and location! Close to train station - about ten minute walk. Ten minute walk to Duomo area. Quiet area and a cafe across the street!! There is an information book that has great information from restaurants to sites, and bakeries too! A wow apartment!

Professional Company

A smaller but extremely well arranged apartment with two bedrooms and a beautiful, large terrace with stunning multiple views of the main monuments and the Arno river! 20 minutes to anywhere in the city center. Excellent security in place and the people running the place are real pros. We have been frequent visitors to Florence for the past 15 years. One of the nicest, if not the nicest property we have stayed at!

AMAZING PENTHOUSE!!

Thank you Donatella for providing such a beautiful space for your guests. I am a very picky traveler and I was thoroughly impressed. The four of us absolutely loved everything about this penthouse and the location could not have been more centrally located. I miss sitting on the balcony with the incredible view, listening to the bells toll! We will b back 🔔

A wonderful penthouse apartment in Florence

This is a fantastically appointed top floor apartment with a large terrace overlooking the city of Florence. It is located by the river only 5 minutes walk away from all the great sights. It is remarkably quiet at night given its position. There are several great restaurants within 100 yards (we tried 3 of them and weren’t disappointed). The owners were very generous, providing us with several bottles of very good wine on arrival. Check in was simple and the private lift to our floor was a real boon. I wouldn’t hesitate from recommending this property to anyone visiting Florence!

Spectacular in every way

This beautiful apartment was more than I could’ve ever hoped for. It was upscale, extremely clean, in a beautiful, walkable neighborhood. Very well outfitted. Excellent security at the building. Felt completely comfortable for a girls’ getaway stay. As in other reviews, the view is absolutely spectacular! . Although it was too cold to enjoy the deck area much, we got some beautiful photographs of our stay there. There were wonderful recommendations for restaurants and gelato from our hosts. I would highly recommend this apartment and look forward to staying again sometime soon!

Florence Holiday

The apartment was perfect. It was ideal for my best friend and me. We have traveled together in the past but have always stayed in hotels. The apartment is beautiful and well appointed. The thought that was given to every detail to truly make it your home was amazing. The views from the rooftop terrace are stunning. The location is great, everything in walking distance to all the museums and incredible shopping. The staff are real pros and highly responsive. Will I come back? The answer is a resounding YES!!!
