Great location! Walking distance to the center of things including the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio. The apartment was perfect for our stay…loved the rooftop view of the Duomo. It should be noted that this apartment is on the 4th floor up 60 steps. Other than really uncomfortable pillows, a perfect place to stay.

Florence Getaway

The location of the property is excellent. We walked to every place we wanted to go. The property was clean and had everything we needed. The balcony was amazing, but it was too hot to go out in the middle of the day. The evening was beautiful.

Great apartment in a lovely location

Our family of five had a great stay here. Everything went well: communication was easy, apartment was clean and warm. The location is great - so easy to access the tourist area - but the neighborhood is also very nice - with great markets, cafes and restaurants just minutes away. I'd stay here again.

Absolutely charming apartment. Hosts were wonderful! Walking distance from everything but be prepared to walk a lot. The stairs were steeper than we were expecting and it was hard to get luggage up! But our host was kind enough to help take our heavy bags up! They do have A/C but it is really not strong enough for the terrible summer heat! The views alone & the wonderful treatment made it all worthwhile!

Beautiful views , great location

Great property in nice Florence neighborhood. Just met us for check in and was very gracious with his time at check in making sure we had everything and making local recommendations. Lotsa stairs to lug up stairs but he even helped with that! The only negative was the all night long noise from a nearby piazza where ther must have been a rave happening (happened both nights we stayed ). Great host.and unbeatable location !

Rooftop makes for memorable stay in Florence

Overall a good experience. Lots of stairs to get to apartment and steep stairs inside to access rooftop patio & 2nd bathroom, but the rooftop views (including lots of chirpy swallows) make it worthwhile. Emanuele is helpful and responsive host. Need to bring your own shampoo and soap for shower, which was a bit tight, but lots of hot water and good pressure. Beds comfy and separate AC in each room.

Cozy Apartment in Firenze

We loved the apartment, has a great view from its terrace. It does not have an elevator, so for people who cannot climb stairs it could be an issue. The host was great and assisted with our luggage.

Property was not as described. It was described as "luxury", it should have said "budget". There was a broken window, leaking air conditioner, water dripping from ceiling to floor, one shower shutting off while in use, one bathroom ceiling was peeling, no box spring on a mattress, no privacy curtains in one bedroom. Broken soap drawer in washer. Rooms were quite small and photos misleading.

Great experience with host and location is 10/10 plus rooftop terrace. Be aware of additional cleaning fee / utility fee per day / per guest per day tourist tax in addition to total VRBO booking. This was communicated 2 hours prior to check in.

Terrific location in a great, non-touristy neighborhood that nevertheless was close to some great sights and restaurants. Apartment overall was clean and comfortable, though the heat was intermittent. (We were there in winter.). Beds very comfortable. The manager was helpful and responsive. We would stay again.

Utilities extra cost

We were surprised to learn that in addition to our payment for our stay we also were asked to pay an extra daily charge for utilities. It's my opinion that this should have been included in the listed price for this Vrbo. Otherwise we really enjoyed our apartment on the fifth floor of building which had a beautiful view of the Duomo

Charmed by the terrace

Good location within walking distance to key sights. Host provided excellent map with suggestions and even carried one of our bags up the stairs. (Thank you, Emanuele!) The stairs to top floor were manageable, but might be a challenge for some. The terrace was a delightful spot to eat, enjoy a cup of coffee, glass of wine or just appreciate the view. Clean and comfortable rooms. Enjoyed our time there.

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!
