Great area from which to experience the sights and sounds of Florence. Emanuele was very helpful, pointing out excellent areas for exploration and eating. Great views from the balcony for morning coffee and evening wine. There are a few stairs to the lift, but Emanuele hoisted our luggage up for us.

We had a great stay in Florence. The apartment was centrally located and well kept. We got lots of great recommendations from Emanuele when we checked in - very helpful! Great views, nice terrace (although it was so hot when we were there so we didn't use it - but we appreciated the air conditioning). This is a great place to stay in Florence.

I loved the location! Though I had a bit of trouble at first communicating with Emmanuel when it was actually time to meet and check-in he was very informative. The apartment does not offer salt, bath soap or shampoo so we had to go get those basics. If I had expected that I would have packed some! All in all the location is perfect, it’s clean and having a lift was great!

The property is in a terrific location and Emanuele was a great host and met us upon arrival. He showed us everything there was to know about the property and surrounding sights. He recommended a terrific restaurant that made our experience so perfect. My fiancé and I cannot wait to come back and stay at this same property.

About the host

Hosted by Emanuele

Host profile image
My name is Emanuele.
I was born and raised in Florence
I started working as a freelancer right after the high school, bringing forward my university studies
You will meet me in Florence during the check in: I will give you the key of the apartment, a map of Florence and all the information you need on the apartment that you have rented and the city of Florence (supermarkets, taxi numbers, museums, restaurants, pubs, ice-cream shops, places for shopping etc.).

Ylenia, my co-worker, is an essential part of my team!
She was born and raised in Florence as well as me.
She graduated in “Economics and Management” and specialized in Science of Tourism.
She is available to solve any doubt or questions you might have from the booking to the check in/out

We both love to travel around the world because we think that there is no better way to learn and increase our knowledge . This is the reason why we believe that contact with people from other realities is essential in order to understand the world in which we live.
We are very lucky people because we were both able to turn our passion into our profession

We hope to meet you soon in Florence!
