We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The home was beautifully decorated and very comfortable for the four of us. The added benefit was the evening concerts from the square. Open the windows and enjoy great music.

Clean, beautiful decor, great location . Very nice owner. We had a heating problem late at night and the owner showed up to fix it so we wouldn't freeze all night. I recommend this property.

Incredible location and stunning apartment!
This appears to be a newly added listing - do not let the lack of reviews deter you from booking. The apartment is exactly as the photos show, if not better. The location is in the heart of Florence, a short walk to nearly everything you’ll want to see. In the evening, the square upon which the grand windows open bustles with talented musicians. We were entertained each evening by cellists, violinists, and operatic voices. We can’t say enough about this incredible apartment and the very communicative and helpful hosts.
