Wonderful stay in Florence
Stayed 4 days in July 2023. Alessandro was amazing and accommodating. We asked if it would be possible to drop our luggage off at the apartment as we arrived in Florence at noon. To our surprise he had expedited the cleaning and check in process for us so that we could have an early check in. It was clear that Alessandro wanted us to enjoy our time in Florence and in addition to orienting us to the apartment provided maps, recommendations, and general tips for navigating the area. The apartment was well appointed and as depicted. Though the weather was 40 degrees C the air con unit in the master bedroom kept us comfortable. We didn't have the need to contact Alessandro during our stay but we were confident that he would attend to any need that presented. Highly recommend the location (easily walkable from train station) and just far enough of the piazza that you are not overwhelmed by crowds. The gelateria across the street is highly recommended as it was a daily treat for our kids (ages 8 and 11).

Florence Accommodations at Their Best
Alessandro, was a superb host. He spent an amazing amount of time with us going over everything and giving us some awesome tips on places to visit. The apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures and it was an absolute pleasure staying near the Duomo and allowed us to be close to everything. Alessandro was very prompt and helpful with answering any questions and helped us obtain a taxi to take us to a meeting point for our guided tour. I can't think of one bad thing to say about his place, you'll have everything you need and I HIGHLY recommend booking this place. If we ever visit Florence again, we will definitely stay here. Thank you Alessandro, you are an awesome host.

Great location and great owner
Stayed 5 nights in July 2019. Alessandro met us at the apartment and went into great detail concerning everything about the apartment and it’s associated amenities. He went into more detail than one would normally expect from an owner. The location of this place is ideal as it is central to everything. It has all the amenities needed. We would recommend this place. Terry & Sharon Montreal, Canada

Perfetto!
My daughter and I stayed in Florence for a 7 days. The location of this apartment is great. Being so close to Duomo it allowed us to wander freely, explore other parts of Florence and always easily find our way back. Alessandro was great to work with. I had 2 instances where I needed help with some phone call and he was happy to help out. Those 2 instances resulted in being very easy for me. The first 4 days we were there the weather was perfect so we spent most of our time outside of the apartment. Days 5 and 6 were rainy. On these rainy days we did some morning museum things, then early afternoon we did the 2 minute walk to the grocery store bought some things for the apartment and watched some movies until the rain let up. Perfect location, very clean and comfortable and a host that is willing and capable helping in any situation.
