I couldn't have had a better experience. Paolo was thoughtful and helped us book guides, train tickets and restaurants, and gave us great advice. In my opinion, the location couldn't be better.

We had a wonderful stay in Florence! The apartment is very central, beautifully furnished and exceptionally clean. It truly felt like a special place to come back to after exploring the city. Valentina is clearly passionate about her home and what she does, and it shows in every detail. She and her son were incredibly responsive, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay.

The apartment is perfect, exactly as described, in a very central yet quiet location. Elegant, cared for down to the smallest detail, large and spacious: I never wanted to leave! If I could, I would give more than 5 stars!

This is a great option for couples travelling together, with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Valentina was kind and responsive, and the location is fantastic. The space is well equipped, the beds are very comfortable, and it was clean and nicely furnished. An excellent apartment from which to explore Florence.

A perfect apartment for a stay in Florence. It was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed, and the beds were very comfortable. We were able to walk to most of the places we wanted to see. Highly recommended!

★★★★★

The apartment was stunning and everything we had hoped for. We travelled with our three children and my mother, and we all had plenty of space, with a bathroom for each room. The kitchen had a lovely family table to gather around and the lounge was comfortable and inviting. The owner welcomed us on arrival and was kind and very helpful: she made us feel welcome and at home right away.
