Condotta Suite 14 was the perfect base for our family visit to Florence. We were a party of 4, my husband and I along with my parents.

The apartment was very clean, and it was obvious that the renovation of the space had been done with care to make the Suite a relaxing oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Florence.

The master bedroom was very large, while the second bedroom was tight for space, but we knew this from the photos of the rooms that the owner had posted in his listing, so it was not a surprise and was what we were expecting. Oh, and the beds were heavenly with what felt like a memory foam mattress. The suite has one full bathroom with a great rain-head shower which never seemed to have any issues with hot water, and one en-suite bathroom with a sink, toilet and bidet. The kitchen was spotless and serviceable, good for basic meal preparation (and with a great dishwasher so that you don't have to spend vacation time doing dishes). But perhaps would be a bit limiting if you were thinking of cooking a gourmet meal as there was only 1 pot (with a large and small metal strainer which could fit inside it) and 1 frying pan.

The apartment is just one block off of Piazza Della Signoria and less than a five minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio in one direction and the Duomo in the other, so we were right in the center of the action.

While the apartment is very wonderful, and well worth staying on its own, Alessandro and his attention and help were invaluable. Before our arrival he emailed a handy guide to us, it recommended his favorite restaurants, and gave tips to enjoy his apartment and city. He went out of his way to check in via email to make sure all was well during our stay. He also provided some extra assistance to our family during our time in Florence, which was so appreciated. It would be our pleasure to stay in Condotta Suite 14 should our travels bring us to Florence again in the future.
