Our vacation in Florence was absolutely perfect because this was our home base. This spacious apartment was beautiful, bright, spotless and made the city completely accessible (everything was walkable). The view from the top floor lookout was breathtaking - especially at sunset. Check-in was seamless, and we appreciated the responsiveness of our host to any questions we had along the way. We highly recommend and would definitely stay again if in Florence!
The location is central. The views in the cupola are unbeatable, there was a great family room that had plenty of room for our large group to hang out & play games. The check in was easy, it was clean & comfortable. We would love to get to stay here again!
We had a lovely visit to Florence and truly enjoyed this place. Check-in was easy and the location was perfect. The place is spacious, clean, and well appointed. We’d stay here again!
We loved this stay. The apartment was spacious and view was amazing. Our host responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again if we are in Florence.
Great location, spacious, clean, comfortable. The elevator was excellent. The host was very quick to respond at all times. Check in and out very easy. Highly recommend! We would definitely stay next time!
The property was perfect for first timers! Very central location to EVERYTHING walkable and very friendly. The accommodations were wonderful. Enjoyed it all!
Stayed in Florence for the first time with my party of 8, this was exactly what I was hoping it would be. Enough room for everyone, air conditioning, washing machine, easy walk to the center of Florence, etc. Lovely place
This was a comfortable and roomy apartment for our site seeing visit.
Annalisa was responsive to our questions and very helpful. The apartment is spacious and clean. Very comfortable and close walking distance to all attractions!
Great location, spacious, spotless, beds comfortable and kitchen well equipped. There were 4 women traveling together and we each had our own room and plenty of space. We had a snafu on our way to the VRBO complicated by protests/strikes. Daniela was very patient with us and available for frequent texts & phone calls as our estimated arrival time changed several times. She provided us a partial refund since we missed almost 2 days of our planned visit in Florence. Thank you!!
We had a wonderful stay in Florence and the apartment was absolutely fantastic. We had two minor issues, once our key just spun round and round and it took 7-10 minutes to finally catch and let us in, the wifi didn’t work the last few days, but we were not in the apartment much so it had little impact on us. We greatly appreciated the stocked kitchen and house manual that answered any other questions we had. Highly recommend, would absolutely stay here again.
Wonderful respite after a day of sightseeing. View from the tower at anytime of day a glorious piece of heaven. We were able to relax and rest in luxury after long days. Near to the main sights and great restaurants. Highly recommend.
The pictures for this property do not do it justice. It is absolutely gorgeous. Our host Annslisa could not be more friendly and helpful. We loved this place, it made our trip that much more special.
This spacious apartment easily accommodated all of our family members. The location couldn't have been better situated for seeing all the beautiful and interesting sites of Florence. The host provided great communication and the apartment was stocked well enough for a tourist stay. The tower rising above the apartment was an added bonus, although we didn't use it much.

A beautiful and clean apartment with gathering space and privacy too. Absolutely the best views around. Right near everything and still not too crowded. Full kitchen and washing machine. Only drawback are some of the late night revelers walk down the street and the sound carries. I would go back any time.

Thank you Nancy for such a wonderful review!
We would be delightful to host you and your family again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this spacious, well appointed apartment and amenities Very comfortable beds and the host was very responsive to any requests/ questions we had. While centrally located, we did have to get taxi for our return to the airport in the early morning of our departure. Wonderful small lift. While the WiFi was very spotty, they are working to improve it. Thank you Sara and Annelisa for a memorable stay in Florence
The check in was so easy with the father of the owner who spoke English. The apartment was more like a palazzo in the middle of Florence. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms worked great for our family. Beautiful, spotless and very well stocked and maintained. The double glazed windows shut out all the noise. The air conditioning worked perfectly. Super experience. Highly recommend.
We were looking for a place on a single level, we brought our 85 year old mother... the place is clean, and well maintained. The internet had a problem.. but it is the way it goes... The place as 3 steps into it, and 2 steps to the toilets, so it's not completely flat..... but the location and cleanliness were excellent. We were a few blocks away from all the major sites, and restaurants were nearby. The area has a college in it, and there are tons of young adults about. It was a great trip and location for 3 days in Florence.
This is a great place to stay in Florence. We had a wonderful time during our eight day stay. With seven adults, six of us seniors, the apartment always felt spacious. It was always comfortable being in the apartment. We appreciated the very large common room, the fully stocked kitchen, the three separate bathrooms, the washing machine, and the copula with the wonderful view of the city. This is a great neighborhood to stay in, just outside of the crowds, but in easy walking distance from all the sights. The WiFi was always problematic, especially with seven of us trying to be on line at the same time. There are Ethernet jacks throughout the apartment, so if you are bringing a laptop, make sure you bring an Ethernet cable.

Noisy neighborhood and noisy water tank
The apartment is spacious and offers beautiful views from the upper level, making it a comfortable space overall. However, its location in a lively area full of pubs means there’s significant noise until around 3–4am, which affects sleep—especially in the bedroom closest to the dining area. Additionally, noise from the water tank can be heard continuously in the apartment. While the manager met us and gave us instructions on how to use the TV, she did so despite knowing it wasn’t working. When we reported the issue, the initial response was dismissive. Upon following up, we were told the TV only worked in Italian and were directed to use the one in a different room with limited seating.Unfortunately, the combination of noise and lack of responsiveness made the stay feel overpriced for the experience.

fantastic, but a few hiccups
The apartment was roomy, immaculate, and I dont think you could find a better location. The views are amazing. Short walk to restaurants, the duomo; walking distance to the museums. However, I recommend highly to future guests that they have the property managers set the air conditioning controls to guest specifications - do not rely on doing it yourself. Another problem was the elevator. When you step off the elevator, the platform is an opaque plastic. One of our party is a civil engineer, and he did assure us that the platform was stable and the material designed to handle heavy weights- but for someone like me, with no knowledge of materials, and fear of heights, I was always made a little anxious by it.So something to consider if a member of your party also suffers from this kind of fear.
Très bel appartement, moderne, original et spacieux, très bien situé. La personne en charge était très réactive. Florence est une ville pleine de charme !
