If you have the chance to stay at this apartment, jump on it!!! Don’t let it pass you by. It’s the perfect place to immerse yourself in the magic of Florence. The view is unbelievable. You’re literally right in the Piazza of the Duomo. You feel like you could reach out and touch the Baptistry. It’s not loud inside, even with constant action downstairs. You’ll be treated to the beautiful bells of Giotto’s campanille every morning, noon, and night. The apartment is HUGE. Much bigger than we expected. Everything works well and the beds are comfy. The hosting team is helpful and welcoming. Easy to contact and they went out our their way to help us with anything we needed.
Realize that you’re staying downtown in a city so to expect some noise from below at night and in the morning. There are 2 pubs on the ground floor of the apartment, literally under your feet. We felt it added to the experience and were never annoyed and our kids slept just fine. There is an ambulance depot half a block away so there are quite a few ambulance sirens. But again, it didn’t bother us. There was zero neighbor noise. Are there neighbors? We never really heard or saw any.
Stay here if you get the chance!! I almost want to keep this place a secret to ourselves! :)
