A perfect stay in Florence
To celebrate our 55th anniversary with our daughter & husband. This property is an excellent location to everything you want to see and do in Florence. Our hostess Simona welcomed us and provided excellent information, tips and arranged a taxi back to the airport. The only thing to be aware of is the AC in. The bedrooms is not very strong. Small problem. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect apartment in the heart of Florence
We had a wonderful stay in this 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment. Simona was the perfect host! We were early for check in and Simona met us at the property, made sure it had been cleaned appropriately, and allowed us to enter early. She provided accurate and fabulous details for parking, and we parked in a garage just steps from our door. The apartment was exactly as advertised, clean, and comfortable, decorated with beautiful furniture and family heirlooms. The location is absolutely perfect, in walking distance from everything! I would highly recommend this property and will definitely stay again next time we visit Florence!

Wonderful apartment in the heart of Florence
We were very excited about this apartment based on the listing and were not disappointed. It is a beautiful flat which met the needs of our family of five. Beds were comfortable and temperature was cool on hot July summer days. The location could not be better as it is minutes walk from Piazza Della Signoria, Uffizi gallery and Ponte Vecchio. Both Francesca and Simona were very easy to communicate with and answered any question we had promptly. We would recommend this unit to anybody travelling to Florence.

Family of four in Florence
I can't say enough wonderful things about this property and about Simona. The location was simply idyllic, with delicious food, coffee and gelato just steps/minutes away... and yet we were tucked away on a quiet little side street and were literally never bothered by noise. We felt safe and secure in our sweet apartment, which is super important to me as a Mama. We were a only 5 minute walk from the Uffizi, and even walking home from the Duomo... with kids... in a hundred-degree heat wave... in July, it felt like we were always close to home. Speaking of the heat wave, the apartment was cool, comfortable and a welcome reprieve when we needed rest. Simona is a treasure, and honestly my only concern about leaving this review is knowing that the more people learn about this jewel of a property, the harder it will likely be for me to rebook it for a future trip. Ha. Don't think twice - this is your place!!! ((Also - do me a favor, and go to Gelateria dei Neri at least once. It's been my favorite for 20+ years.))

Incredible apartment, location and owner!
The location of this apartment is fantastic! It is right in the middle of things and a short walk from all the major tourist sites but is also quiet and tucked in a small side street. Simona was well organized and thorough and very easy to communicate with. The apartment is well stocked, comfortable and very chic. Every detail was considered including coffee, umbrellas to borrow, shampoo and even a treat and water bottle left for us to enjoy. We enjoyed this stay fully - would highly recommend

Look no further you are home
If you love Florence as my wife and I do having traveled to this amazing city often you will not find a better location for your stay than here. This comfortable, extremely well-kept and furnished, spotlessly maintained apartment is THE place you want to call your “home away from home.” Your host, Simona, is at once welcoming and responsive to any foreseeable need during your stay which always puts a traveler at ease - whether for a few nights or a few weeks. You simply won’t find a better spot to explore this amazing city. Located on a quiet narrow street, just a few steps up across from a small church, you will love the sense of peace and quiet after a day of navigating the sights and endless marvels of Florence. Enjoy your stay.

Best apartment in Florence!!
We were more pleased than we expected! Our host, Simona, offers a WELL furnished and comfortable stay for 4 adults for 10 nights. She provides a wealth of info for getting around Florence: where to get groceries (she provides a cart), helped us find parking and even arranged a cab to the airport at 4:30 AM! She was very easy to reach for questions. Her apartment is very beautifully decorated, and the kitchen thoughtfully includes EVERYTHING, even to prepare a meal of fresh made pasta and wine from the little shop right around the corner! Our "welcome" of a small bottle of Prosecco and pastry treats was unexpected, but seems typical for her level of hospitality. We had NO problems with the apartment. It is in a safe and secure area. Very close to countless eating and sightseeing venues. We highly recommend her apartments (she has 2 in this building, the Francesca and the Simona)

Lovely stay in Florence
Simona’s place in the historic district could not be more perfectly situated for a visit to Florence. Within minutes you can walk to ALL the major sights. The neighborhood is charming, clean, safe and quiet even though it is around the corner from a very busy street with great cafes, restaurants and shops that is bustling until late at night. The apartment itself is clean, bright and airy, simply but tastefully furnished with comfortable beds, good water pressure and a well stocked kitchen. Wi-Fi was consistently reliable, washing machine modern and easy to use. Simona was a very responsive host and waited for us for several hours when we had issues getting there due to a railway problem. No down side here, we had a very pleasant stay!

Superb in all aspects
Simona was excellent with communication before and during the stay. She gave detailed overview on check-in and in addition, she leaves lots of information including city maps and other details. The location was excellent, 4 minutes from Uffizi and 10 from the Duomo. There was plenty around the apartment but it’s located one street back so it was nice and quiet. We only heard the distant church bells. It was great having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which was perfect for 4 adults. The kitchen had everything we needed and the unit has a clothes washing machine and a drying rack. She even provided Netflix and cable TV. I would definitely recommend this unit and it would be my first choice if I came back to Firenze!
