My husband and I stayed here 3 nights and it was our best accommodations experience in Italy (after visiting Positano and Rome). The location is right next to Ponte Vecchio and walking distance everywhere in Florence! We always felt safe walking around and spent equal time on both sides of the river. Don’t miss watching sunset from any of the bridges!Ponte Santa Trinita was our favorite sunset spot. The host, Angelo, is incredibly hospitable and provided dining recommendations and helpful tips throughout our stay. We had our best dining experience in Italy away from the tourist crowds by following his recommendation to dine at nearby Hosteria Da Fulvio.
The apartment was perfect for two people. I am picky when it comes to cleanliness and comfort and this place did not disappoint! Very comfortable bed, updated bathroom, nice decor, and great air conditioning. We were always excited to return to the apartment at the end of the night and also for rest during the day. I also appreciated the functional hair dryer and iron/ironing board. The unit is on the 2nd floor so we were grateful there is an elevator for our luggage.
Note that we traveled by train and the taxi line was very long upon arrival so we walked with our rolling luggage to/from the train station with no problems. It’s a fairly flat walk that only takes about 15 minutes, so I recommend doing that instead of waiting and paying for taxis.
Overall, 10/10 experience staying here and would stay here again. No complaints, we highly recommend!
