Stafano and Patrizia were absolutely fantastic. Due to unexpected flight delays, we arrived at the apartment very late and they meet us to help us up the stairs and show us around the beautiful apartment. The apartment is very well stocked with kitchen items and the restaurant recommendations we tried were fantastic. The rooms all had AC which was very nice with the high temperatures when we were there. I highly recommend staying at this beautiful apartment. It was perfect for our family of four.

Stefano and Patrizia were gracious hosts. They met us for check-in and even had the apartment ready early which was so helpful. They welcomed us with a treat as well. The apartment was very clean and bright and located in a nice building. There was a desk next to a window in one of the bedrooms that was a great spot to apply my makeup each morning with a mirrored wardrobe right next to it. Stefano even helped us with arranging a taxi for our early departure day because I was having issues with it. Would recommend and stay again as we hope to revisit beautiful Florence in our future travels.

Patizia and Stefano are A1 hosts. Communication with Patrizia was so convenient and easy and her responses were quick. She helped us with parking and when we noticed that we were in need of a couple of supplies, boom!, they were delivered. Check in was seamless; the apartment is beautiful and comfortable. The only thing is the sofa bed. Well, it is a sofa bed that we used for our young, nimble son. 100% recommend this property for your stay in Florence!
