A Lovely Apartment in an Excellent Location

We loved the authentically Florentine feel of this place. It was spacious with big windows, great height (that stunning ceiling); the loft bedrooms only enhanced the sense of space. Our late check-in was smooth and simple with digital entry and clear instructions sent prior to arrival. We enjoyed a very comfortable stay within walking distance of everything we’d hoped to see. Would certainly recommend to friends and family.

Location cannot be beat

An excellent location, first and foremost. A beautiful building as well; we loved falling asleep looking up at the ceiling frescos. Clean, quiet despite the busy street downstairs, and perfect for a family of 3 adults. Bonus points for 2 hairdryers! Just caution to those who are not able to handle stairs- it’s a long stairwell up and the stairs within the apartment are not for the faint of heart. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great location. 10 minute or less stroll to everything you want to see in Florence. Nice place. Ceilings are amazing! Only thing not expected was the 2 bedrooms are open to the floor below like a loft. But we adapted, no big concern! Host was great. Quickly in touch whenever we had questions.

Great location in a fabulous city. we walked everywhere.... The unit was clean... a little dark....could use a little more lighting but that is probably a problem anywhere in a medieval city....pack lightly as you have to go up stairs...and it is like that in most vrbos in the area. easy to communicate with....overall...we enjoyed every minute.

It is in a great location in Florence. Loved the cozy feel of the flat. decor and remodel made it feel like we were at a friends home. Some noise from the streets until late hours but drinking wine helped tune it out. Would recommend it to friends for sure. So clean and owners were accessible for help if we needed them.

We loved everything about this place - great location, outstanding architecture and a very easy experience. It worked well for our family, including our three daughters: 23, 20 and 18. Word of advice - bring some additional shampoo and soap if you are staying for more than a day or so. Also, there is no clothes dryer in the unit, but they do have a large drying rack which worked well. Thanks again for a great experience!

Lovely apartment

We have stayed in many VRBO's and this was a winner. Lovely old Florentine building and lovely decor. Incredibly spacious, especially just for two of us. Huge windows that open to the street (though the street was quite noisy during the day as some people have mentioned in other reviews). Our only quibble, and it is minor, is that the kitchen cabinets and bedroom dressers, because they are old, "stuck" quite a lot upon opening. They could use some upgrade. But, again, this was minor, and we really did love the apartment. Also, the location was outstanding, just a short walk to the major sites. Try Gelateria Carraia at the opposite end of the nearby Ponte Carraia, also I Parione, at the bottom of the building.

We had a wonderful stay in this amazing apartment!

We had a wonderful stay in this amazing apartment! Gaia and Stefano could not have been more gracious hosts. Gaia was incredibly responsive and provided us with helpful information before we arrived, and when we arrived Stefano helpfully showed us around the apartment and answered all of our questions. Because we were staying for a full week, we were looking for a centrally located apartment in Florence that was clean, had wifi, air conditioning, and a washing machine in the unit. This apartment had all of those things and was incredibly comfortable and spacious. It was only a 10 minute walk to all of the major sights (Duomo, Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, etc), and a stone’s throw from the Arno river, where we spent many a night enjoying sunsets from the Ponte alla Carraia bridge and eating some of the best gelato you will find in Florence at the Gelateria La Carraia. We would highly recommend this apartment and look forward to staying there again in the future!

Florence for Foodies

Our stay in Florence was spectacular. This apartment was centrally located and we were able to walk and see everything we wanted to see. There were some terrific restaurants only steps away! The apartment is quite old and was not great for older adults (we are all in our 70s). There are two flights of stairs up to the apartment and, once inside, the stairs to the bedrooms are very old and require extra caution going up and down. The upstairs shower did not drain well, and you had to turn the water on and off in short bursts in order to avoid flooding the floor. Other than that, the beds were comfortable, and the apartment was adequately stocked for four people. Be aware that, if traveling with friends, the bedrooms are not very private. They are both lofts and the walls do not reach the ceiling.

Old world splendor with modern amenities!

My jaw dropped when we walked into the apartment the first time! It's even more beautiful than the pictures! From the decorated coffered ceilings to the ornate closet doors to the large windows, old wooden floors and staircase, we really felt like we were a wealthy shop owner family from old Florence. The bedrooms and bathrooms were nice and big with a walk in closet in one of them. The kitchen was stocked with all the dishes and appliances we needed. The AC was much appreciated after a long day walking thru the city on hot July days! The apartment is on a very fashionable street and is within walking distance of all the major sights in Florence. Gaia was very responsive to my questions when I was inquiring about the apartment and even let us leave our bags in her shop the last day after checkout so that we could do more exploring of Florence. Stefano met us the day we moved in and showed us around the apartment. All in all, we had a great stay here and would recommend the apartment.
