We had a fantastic time in the beautiful apartment; everything was 5-star. The apartment was beautiful, very clean, and equipped with everything you need; the terrace was a great space above the town to relax. The location gives you easy access to public transport for exploring Tuscany, and Prato has so much to offer, and Ilaria was the perfect host!

We had a wonderful stay at Ilaria's place. Beautifully decorated, clean, with all the essential amenities. Conveniently located in the heart of Prato, surrounded by shops, cafes, restaurants, local sights, and the train station. It is on the top floor, with many steps to enter, but the rooftop terrace is worth it—a spectacular view of the surrounding bell towers and perfect for sitting outside and relaxing. Ilaria was a wonderful host, making us feel welcome, and was very helpful with any questions we had. She even helped arrange a taxi to the airport for us at an ungodly hour. Highly recommend!

Authentic experience with wonderful hostess

We loved this large, central apartment, steps away from Monash University. Illaria was friendly and helpful throughout. The apartment was very special - fully equipped with lovely things because she lived there, and spacious. The rooftop terrace was a bonus - best in morning and noon or in cooler evenings. Lots of space for our things with drawers and hanging space for clothing. Ilaria went out of her way to help us with our luggage on arrival because only residents can drive to this central location. We parked at Parcheggio Del Serraglio (Il Serraglio train station) which was secure, reasonable and an easy walk, then took a taxi back to it w. our suitcases when we left. The appliances worked well and once we found the nearby butcher and market open, we bought quality food and made great dinners. But you can always go out and find something reasonable. The AC was useful, but we also used the shutters to keep it cool. Only drawback is that being so central, there is noise from the outdoor seating in the bars on the street quite late. Be aware of the stairs if you aren't very mobile. We thought they were worth it. So much to do in Prato or short train rides or drives. Our week in Prato was a highlight of our six weeks in Europe and this apartment one of the best we have ever found thanks to Illaria.
