We are so happy to be the first to review this beautiful apartment and tell the world about our terrific experience here. Elisa and her father (who did all the renovation work) met us at the door with big smiles at the appointed hour and got us settled in. If you notice how immaculate the apartment looks in the fotos, it is true. Everything is in perfect condition. The building is constructed on an ancient Roman theatre, the arches in the apartment are the original - about 1800 years old. We loved the contrast of the ancient origens with the clean, modern renovation. Very comfortable, very spacious and ideally located for walking all of Florence. 5 minutes to the Uffizi, and Piazza della Signoria, 10 minutes to the Statue of David, 2 minutes to Sta. Croce where Michelangelo and Galileo are buried. We cannot speak highly enough about this beautiful apartment and our very gracious hosts. 5 stars all the way!
