Place was great. Lots of space. Great location close to the train station. Had everything you would need and the host was very responsive and helpful. Only down fall was the warm main bedroom. It didn’t cool with the air conditioning.

Great stay

We enjoyed our stay at Under the Roof of Sofia. Very convenient to the sites of Florence as well as the train station. The place was very clean and comfortable. Was on the third floor with no elevator, so may be an issue for some. Would stay there again.
