This apartment was clean, quiet and secure and conveniently located near the main train station. it is easy walking distance to everything you might want to see or do in Florence. The check-in and communication with the host was excellent.
Romano did a great job explaining the rules of the accomodation, and the accomodation is great; with all adequate facilities. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place near the train station

Jackson is a great host, definitely recommend and always welcome.
Romano gave perfect directions to get to the apartment from the train station and was there to meet us. He offered a map and gave directions to points of interest and gave good recommendations for restaurants and coffee shsops. The apartment is small but well furnished - coffee maker, tea kettle, dishes, pots/pans, utensils and more. Very clean and comfortable. It is on the 3rd floor so quite a few steps, but the location is perfect for exploring, walkable to pretty much everywhere. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again!

Michelle was one of my favourite client, so definitely recommend and is always welcome back.
I would recommend this place. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. Romano accomodated our late check in at 10pm and spent 20 minutes with us orientating us to the area and recommended good and reasoanbly priced restaurants and supermarket. Many restaurants just outside the apartment. Only 15 minutes to Duomo and the walk is easy and beautiful. If you look at the other more popular site, this apartment has many good reviews.
The host spoke very good English. We had a very pleasant stay and woukd stay here again. Grazie Mille Romano.

Excellent Apartment in a great location of Florence
My friend Karen and I enjoyed our stay at the Vasari, Florence apartment. The location was excellent, and the apartment was very clean as well as convenient to the Arno River, the Santa Maria train station and the tourist area near Ponte Vecchio Bridge and the Duomo. The bed was very comfortable. Our host Romano, was very nice and responsive to our communications.Our only complaint was with the VRBO website. We had no specific address, so even though the train station was literally 2 blocks from the apartment, we wandered with heavy luggage through the maze of Florence cobbles for over an hour and a half trying to find the apartment. It will be very helpful if VRBO would start providing an address and telephone number for the host up front.

Great clients, highly recommend and always welcome.
I bought this property because it is conveniently located near the Santa Maria Novella train station. You don't want the hassle of hiring a taxi or to hobble over cobblestones to the center of town, correct? Instead, you can begin your stay with a quick walk over paved streets, and you and our roller suitcase will reach my property in 5-minutes!
