Oasis above the arches was just that for my family & I - a great oasis from the hustle and bustle of Florence just outside it's door. My children and I couldn't have had a better time in Florence and our stay in this apartment was certainly no small part for our enjoying ourselves. The apartment was great and lived up to everything we could have wanted and then some. You can't get a more central location to all of the things you'll want to see and do. The apartment is very well maintained and is perfect for someone looking more space than a regular hotel room. The 3 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms, living room & kitchen were more than enough space for our family of 4. It was so nice to be able to go to the supermarket just a short 5-10 minute walk from the apartment and make breakfast in the morning before venturing out and to have a big space to rest at the end of the day. Our host Michelangelo was great. He reached out before our arrival to arrange for a time to meet to get the keys and met us exactly at the time we arranged. Michaelangelo was very warm and welcoming & made my children and I feel right at home. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking to immerse themselves in Florentine culture.
