My wife and I had a very enjoyable stay at this apartment. It turned out better than we expected as the place is roomy, comfortable, clean and nicely decorated in an eclectic contemporary style. We found the apt. very safe and quiet as it sits in the back courtyard of a building behind 2 tall locked gates. Its location is really convenient as it is near the Duomo (3 min walk), 15-20 min walk from the SMN train station and within walking distances to other places in Florence (e.g. Accademia, San Lorenzo Mercato, Republica Piazzaz, Uffizi museum, Ponte Vecchio, Boboli garden, etc.). The hosts also provided excellent, prompt communication before and during our stay. We really appreciate their detailed and thorough information about Florence essential travel needs such as map, places to visit, transportation, restaurants, etc. We love to return to Florence and would definitely stay here again. Thanks!
