Short trip to Florence
The apt. was just as described. Kati was waiting for us to arrive in early afternoon which was great we didnt have to store luggage waiting for 4pm. Kati carried my way too heavy luggage up the 53 stairs. She also ordered us a taxi for departure which was great. Loved Florence had a great 2 days.

The heart of Florence
Fantastic location, the host was very accommodating and thoughtful. We walked everywhere from this location including the Duomo, David, the train station, etc. We did get dinged for the the use of air conditioning $10e per day which wasn’t noted on the Vrbo listing. Definitely needed it.

Perfect place, minus the bed
Kati was a perfect host -- responsive, on-time, warm and helpful! The apartment is charming and in a prime location. Our ONLY complaint about this place is the bed. I read many, many reviews about this apartment and plenty of people comment about the bed being comfortable. These people must be used to sleeping on a hardwood floor. The bed is a thin, Ikea-like mattress on a wooden platform--no box spring. It's VERY firm. That's probably not a problem for most people but my partner has muscle issues and we're both used to sleeping on a very soft bed, so we were very uncomfortable. Also, the towels in the bathroom are pretty old and rough.
Now for all the good things: Very clean and cozy, all the amenities you could want or need. Kati even provides a little basket of wine and snacks! There's a washer and Kati provides detergent so we were able to do a small load of laundry (much appreciated!). The double windows do a superb job of blocking out the street noise and the curtains keep the room dark. The location is very convenient and we highly recommend making a dinner reservation at the restaurant next door, La Giostra. Technically, the apartment is between two dining rooms of the restaurant. Kati also has a book full of other great recommendations. Also, like most buildings in Italy, there is no lift and Kati shocked me when she carried my very heavy suitcase all the way up to the 4th floor without seeming to struggle at all.
Except for the firm bed, would highly recommend this apartment to anyone!

Great Little Apartment
Katy's place was adorable!! Very close to the Duomo, restaurants and shopping.
Katy met us when we arrived and gave us the tour, very pleasant. She even helped us with our suitcases.
Only down fall, lots of stairs to climb but after all the gelato we ate...we didn't mind the exercise!!!!

Charming apartment in a great location!
The apartment was clean, easy to access, and in a great location. We were able to walk everywhere. Katy went above-and-beyond by meeting us there and giving us a thorough tour. She made sure we knew where everything was. We really appreciated the time she gave to make sure we were comfortable. I have no doubt that if we needed anything, she would have been right there to help. Great experience; just wish we had a few more days in beautiful Florence.

Excellent location and comfort in Firenze
My husband and I stayed at this apartment for 4 nights in May 2018. The owner, Katy, communicated with us prior to our arrival and was at the apartment when we arrived. The apartment is on the third floor and is well located in Florence (Firenze); about 3 blocks from the Duomo. The location was easy to find and allowed for easy access to return to the apartment during the day as needed. Katy was a wonderful host and provided a good overview of the apartment and sites in Florence. The apartment is a very good size with a living area, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom; comfortable bed and all of the necessities of home. There are double glazed windows for a quite night and air conditioner if needed. Katy welcomed us with a bottle of wine and a few appetizers. We would certainly recommend staying at this apartment.
Thank you for your warm hospitality Katy!!

Clean, charming, great location
Katy was very welcoming to my husband and I when we arrived. Her apartment is very clean and cute, and could not have been more conveniently located right in the center of town. The double windows basically blocked out any street noise and neither of us had problems sleeping at all. Highly recommend!

Ideal location!!
The location is ideal! Katy, our host was very helpful and so welcoming! Everything you need is available to you with this apartment. You are steps away from the Dome and most restaurants and night life. That being said, because the apartment is located on a quieter street, it is very quiet at night. I would recommend this location to anyone and will definitely go back to this same place when I return to Florence! Thank you for everything Katy!

Beautiful apartment at the centre of historic Florence.
This apartment is situated right in the heart of beautiful Florence with all of the atmosphere you would expect. It is 2 minutes walk from The Duomo and there are many great restaurants and bars nearby. The apartment itself is very comfortable, beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a short stay. It is just as you see in the photos. Kati is a wonderful host who was very concerned that we had everything we needed and could enjoy our stay to the full no hesitation in recommending. Go and enjoy Florence.
