Le Stanze Della Contessa is absolutely beautiful and in a perfect location.
Little did I know when I booked the apartment, that I would be under quarantine. Someone was watching over me because not only is the apartment in a perfect location for tourists, it’s also in a perfect location for self-quarantine!
There’s a Conad directly across the street and a short walk to Sant’Ambrogio market.
Hopefully no one reading this review will ever experience this, but I only want to emphasize how wonderful the apartment is in any situation.
Cosimo responds immediately. He’s very friendly and it was extremely easy communicating with him.
When I first arrived, I was greeted by Mali.
Mali “la magnifica”.
During my stay she has been so warm, friendly and extremely helpful. I don’t know what I would do without her.
One day my only phone charger broke-without my phone, I would have no contact with family.
All stores, except grocery and pharmacy were closed. Mali came to the rescue! She “borrowed” one from her son, and lent me her own phone so I could set up an Amazon.it account so I could order a new one. That’s only one example of her generosity and kindness.
The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures. No unpleasant surprises.
Immaculately clean and well appointed, with large rooms. The kitchen is well equipped. The Conad is directly across the street, and you can find whatever you need to stock the pantry.
There’s a washer/dryer which is wonderful to have-especially during an extended stay!
The bedroom is large and the bed and pillows are perfectly comfortable.
The bathroom is large with an oversized shower.
I absolutely recommend
Le Stanze Della Contessa.
It’s within walking distance of all the sites, but far enough away from crowds and nightly noise during peak tourist season.
When I come back to Firenze in the Fall, this is the only place I will stay.
Ti ringrazio Cosimo.
