It is tastefully furnished with the owner's personal belongings and is equipped with a TV, DVD and CD player, stereo, WI-FI, dishwasher, washing-machine, air cond
Just walking through the central courtyard of this beautiful Palazzo is a journey to the heart of historic Florence. Centrally located, it is perfect for sight seeing, shopping and food markets, discovering cosy trattorie and bars, as well as artists' and artisans' ateliers.

Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay here - the apartment is nicely equipped with everything we needed. Everything is within walking distance yet the apartment still feels pretty quiet overall. This is an apartment for people who don’t mind the stairs as it is on the second floor and one bed is in the loft which requires using the ladder to go and up down as well.
