Patrizia and Stefano were excellent hosts. They greeted us at the apartment and helped take our luggage up the two flights of stairs and gave us general information about the neighborhood and our stay. Stefano returned at checkout to once again help us with the bags. They responded via WhatsApp whenever we had a question. Patricia communicates well in English. The apartment is a 10 minute walk to the Pitti Palace and 20 minutes from the Ponte Vecchio. The #11 bus is close by for those who prefer public transportation. We liked staying somewhere away from the very crowded center of town. The apartment itself is lovely--clean and nicely furnished. Cleaning supplies etc. were provided. In sum, highly recommended!

The owners, Stefano and Patrizia, were so pleasant, available and helpful when we had a question or needed support. They met us on arrival and carried our luggage up the stairs - they did the same when we departed 7 days later. The apartment was exceptionally well-equipped and very clean. The location was so close to all amenities including a pharmacy, restaurants, specialty shops, bus stop, taxi stand, etc. We loved, loved this place!!

The apartment worked out well for us. It is clean and well equipped and quite convenient to the historic centre of Florence. The kitchen is well equipped and the washing machine was a big bonus.Patrizia was there to greet us and show us around. She also told us about buses to take to where we wanted to go and where we could get groceries.When it was time for us to leave, both Patrizia and Stefano were there to say goodbye and Stefano helped with our luggage.The only downside is that there isn’t an elevator and the apartment is on the 2nd floor in Europe (3rd floor in North America). Otherwise, it was ideal.

Wonderful place for our family while in Florence. We were very comfortable with the space and all the accommodations. The location is great, a bit outside the main center of the city but easy to walk to all the sites. The neighborhood is great with many shops and restaurants. Also an amazing gelato place at the end of the block.

Quiet side of the Arno

This is a beautiful and comfortable property. Highly recommended. One of the best restaurants we went to during a three week Europe trip was does down from the property. The hosts were friendly and gracious. I really liked being on the other side of the Arno away from the noise at night but a short walk to get to everything by day

Cute home outside city centre

The home was very nice and clean. Patrizia and Stefano were very welcoming when we arrived and easy to communicate with before and after checkin. The area is nice and quiet compared to the busy city centre, which is about 20 minutes walk away. The beds were comfortable. There’s lots of good cafés and bars nearby, one we really enjoyed, and that is along the walk towards the city centre is Pitti Express. Overall a great stay!

Diladdarno Holiday Home

We were met by the owner when we arrived, who explained everything that we needed to know about the apartment and area, shops and restaurants. The apartment was beautifully remodeled with modern bathrooms and kitchen. Two large beds with plenty of closet space in both bedrooms.. Whenever we reached out, the owners were quick to respond and gave us lots of help. The apartment was just south of the main tourist area,( Porto Romana ), which was nice to get away from the crowds . 3 really nice restaurants within a block of the apartment with delicious food and service. 2 gelato and pastries shops also. We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone who would be staying in the Florence area.
