This place was amazing. It is right in the middle of everything that you want to see. We loved the outdoor balcony, the painted ceiling in the living room and all of the furnishings. There was even a decorated Christmas tree. They were waiting for us. Teona was a wonderful host.

Marco was our host and was fantastic. From showing us all the amenities of our stay, to making recommendations for food and shopping, Marco was outstanding. The accommodations were great. It is close to everything we wanted to see, but also far enough from the crowds to be quiet in the evenings.

Fabulous Florence Apartment!

Our stay was absolutely amazing! We stayed at the Bargello Terrace for a second year in a row and loved it just as much as ever! Great location, wonderful space with comfortable beds! The pull out couch is truly like another bed…so you can truly fit 6 if you wanted to! We love the terrace overlooking the Bargello castle. Magical!!! Marco was fantastic and incredibly reliable. Whenever I reached out to him he responded immediately! He also gave us a few restaurants! Grazie Florence!!! 💕💕💕🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

What a wonderful stay in the heart of Florence! We enjoyed breakfast on the patio with a view of Palazzo del Bargello. The frescoed ceiling made us feel like Medici! The owner was excellent to interact with and helpful. It was a short walk to the sights. Wonderful!

Fantastic location

This is a beautiful apartment with a fantastic location. I wish I could live here, it’s so nice. We are all youngish and fit so the two-story walk up was manageable, but for anyone with mobility issues, it’s definitely something to be aware of. Although there is a second bathroom, the shower set up really prevents it use. There is no shower curtain, as is common in Europe, so you would essentially soak the entire bathroom if you used the shower. Being a family, it was easy for us to all just use the main bathroom. If we were to return to Florence, I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Great location, Great apartment

The apartment is super charming and was as described in the post. Bedrooms and living room are huge. The kitchen was very clean and had everything you would need to cook a meal (we cooked breakfast daily). Minor hiccup while we were there, but John responded promptly and appropriately and all was well. Balcony off kitchen very cute (but winter so we didn’t use..). The location is very good - just off a shopping street - VERY short walk to Duomo. It was quiet with no restaurants/bars that we heard (winter time). Heat for the apartment and hot water worked well. I would stay here again. We had two adults and three teenage kids and it was plenty of space!

So comfortable and central!

Five stars for this sweet apartment, despite a booking mix-up that could have been disastrous. I booked the apartment six months in advance, so I don't know how this happened, but on our first night there, another family walked in the front door, giving us quite a surprise. I immediately called John, the owner, who was always easy to reach and very nice and apologetic. He said there had been a double booking and he would help the other family find a new place. So we weren't put out, but we felt bad for the other family who had arrived after a long journey and had to scramble at 9 pm for a new place to stay. There's really no excuse for this, and I saw in another review that it had happened before. John said he is no longer working with the agency that double-booked, so hopefully it won't happen again. And other than that, our stay was perfect. The kitchen is big and easy to use (though could use some staples like olive oil and sugar), and the living room was pretty and comfortable. The room with two twin beds was the prettiest. The primary room was on the small side but just fine. Our family of four all showered in the primary bathroom because the second bathroom, off the living room, had an open shower that would saturate the toilet and most of the bathroom floor. If we had been two couples traveling together it would have been more of a problem, but as a family, we were happy to share the primary shower. Steep stairs could be a problem for anyone with mobility issues.

Location & Comfort

We found the apartment just as listed. It’s large with room to relax and rewind after a day of sightseeing. While it is listed as the second floor, keep in mind Italy calls the first level floor 0. Getting into the property was simple; the host provided good instructions. The apartment is accessed through a locked door to the street followed by a locked gate to the staircase. The stairs up to the apartment have motion sensor lights that provide ample lighting for safety. The stone steps do get very slippery when wet so beware when the cleaning staff mops the entry and stairway! The apartment itself was secure, and we felt very safe during our 3 night stay. The bathrooms are small as are most in Italy. Towels were large and comfy which is always appreciated. A hairdryer is provided. The second bathroom functions more as a half-bath; it is a “wet” bathroom with a shower head but no contained shower stall. The apartment has a large coat closet at the entry and an armoire in the second bedroom for hanging clothes. The kitchen is equipped with cookware for making meals; groceries can be picked up at a small store nearby. The small, private terrace was nice to have. The location was perfect with piazzas, restaurants, shops, and our friends’ hotel a short walk away. The street from which you access the apartment is clean and we felt safe walking back late at night. The price was comparable to a small hotel room in the same area but offers comforts of space and privacy.

Fabulous Florence Stay!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about my stay in Florence at this beautiful apartment. Property manager John has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. My daughter is studying this fall in Florence and I wanted to have it for an extended period of time and invite friends for a little getaway from the states. The apartment was clean, beds were incredibly comfortable, the outside space overlooking the Bargello Palace was just beautiful. Tons of space in the apartment and it was close to everything! I could not have chosen a better apartment to stay at for three weeks! It felt like home away from home. If you are looking for a comfortable space with a truly wonderful owner, you have found the right place! Don’t be afraid to just pop in to some of the restaurants right near the apartment… You don’t have to have a reservation everywhere in Florence. 5 stars for sure!!!!

A week in Florence

We stayed for nearly a week in this central location. The apartment is well equipped, with comfy beds, nice linens, pretty kitchenware, hot showers, and a lovely terrace to sit in the mornings and plan each day. We were able to walk everywhere we went, including the bus station for one day trip to a vineyard south of the city. John left clear instructions and helpful suggestions. It felt like a real privilege to be able to stay in the heart of such a culturally and historically rich city.

Wonderful Apt in the heart of Florence

We recently stayed in John's apartment in Florence. The apartment was just beautiful. Well maintained, clean, up-to-date with decor, comfortable beds and quality linens and towels. The location was fantastic. Just a few blocks from all of the significant landmarks of Florence. There is a bakery/cafe and small grocery store just around the corner as well as many restaurants and gelato that you can image. John, the property owner, is a fantastic communicator. I really appreciated his promptness to my messages as well as his attention to detail on information relative to our stay. For those considering staying here, there is no lift and the apartment is on the 3rd floor. If you have any member that has significant mobility issues, they might be challenged. Our age ranged between 55 and 68. We all managed the stairs just fine but just want to provide a heads up. The apt, location and view was worth the extra steps. If I find myself again in Florence, I for sure would see if this apartment was available for a repeat stay.

Elegant refuge in the heart of historic Florence

The apartment is clean, well appointed and nicely decorated. Steps from the Duomo and the Uffizi, it was the perfect getaway from the heat when we couldn’t walk anymore. The kitchen and small balcony are adorable. We enjoyed cooking breakfast before heading out for the day, and some wine at night with cheese. The owner, John, was very helpful and responsive, with good recommendations for various meal options. Only 2 things to note: the apartment is on the third floor with no elevator and the bldg is located in the historic zone, so need to follow John’s suggestion for the garage to avoid fines if you drive in. Would stay there again!
