About this property

Cool San Frediano: a perfect stay in the Oltrarno neighborhood

Wonderful apartment, with attention to detail, warm, welcoming, bright and spacious.
Two double bedrooms, a nice lounge and a perfect kitchen equipped with every comfort. Romantic terrace over the roofs of Florence, ideal for spring / summer dinners.
An absolutely gorgeous apartment in the center of the best neighborhood of Florence. The brand new design furniture and beautiful fixtures make this a wonderful, comfortable apartment to enjoy our fantastic city of Florence!

Located in the fabulous, unspoiled artisanal quarter, you can experience a true taste of Florentine life. Surrounded by great local restaurants, art studios, individual shops, vintage shops, fresh grocery stores and organic shops, daily and weekly markets.

The Holy Spirit Square is a couple of minutes stroll, one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, with pavement cafes, lively bars, and inexpensive and excellent restaurants. Here is a thriving and ecstatic community of locals, artists, expats and a friendly and happy Vibe.
The other side of the river - the North side, is far more touristy and more expensive while this unspoiled authentic neighborhood is the 'real' Florence and a truly beautiful experience (we live this side too!). A wonderful retreat in the heart of the renaissance!

Lovely!

We had the best time here! The apartment was nice and cool during the hottest time of the year and provided all of the amenities we needed to relax after long days walking around the city. The terrace was so lovely for breakfast and relaxing. The location is wonderful for its proximity to local bakeries, shops, markets and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Large & comfortable apartment

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Great neighborhood, large apartment with plenty of space. Easy walk over the bridge into the heart of Florence, and the best restaurants are on the Oltrarno side of the river.

We had a wonderful stay at this apartment in Florence! The location was perfect — within walking distance to everything we wanted to see, but far enough away from the super busy areas. The apartment itself was spacious and comfortable, giving us plenty of room to relax after a day of exploring. Communication with Viviana was exceptional. She went above and beyond, taking the time to give us incredibly thorough recommendations for the best local restaurants, shopping spots, churches, and must-see sights. Her tips truly enhanced our experience. Highly recommend!

Great location in a great city!

Valentina and her colleague Viviana were great. From the booking all the way to the check-out process, they were responsive and prompt. The apartment is big and fit my family of 4 comfortably. It's located in a great spot with amazing food within 5 minutes from the apartment.

Not what it promised to be…!

The appartement was really not clean! The contact persoon startend to clean as we checked in, because she was embarrassed!The little terras on the pictures… is a real dirty mess!WiFi is poor! The air conditioning- only in the bedrooms- doesn’t really cool off when it’s hot.There are no international channels on the tv.If they put more effort in the overall ambiance and the cleanliness, this could be a top property.The best was its location.We will NOT rent it again, unless some improvements are made. So sorry!

Perfect place for our family

We had a wonderful stay. The location is out of the hustle and bustle but an easy walk with two children. It was quiet but less than 3 minutes to some of the best Italian food and fun. We would definitely recommend and stay again.

Two Weeks in Florence

The apartment was perfect for my two-week stay in Florence studying Italian. It is charming (it looks just like the pictures). The location is wonderful. You feel like you are living in a Florentine neighborhood, with lots of little restaurants just steps away. The check-in was easy and friendly. I had one small question on the first day, which the owner answered immediately. I can't wait to go back!

First time in Florence

Great neighborhood! There were so many amazing places all within walking distance, shops, bakeries, restaurants, cafes. Would definitely stay in the same area again. The flat was perfect for me and my sister. It had everything we needed. The house manager was very responsive and even helped us book taxis to the airport.
