Best hosts. They were very nice and the courtyard parking was a plus in the middle of town which is very hard to get parking in the middle of Florence. It was very convenient walk to the Galleria Dell’Accademia Di Firenze to see Statue of David and the popular sandwich shop All’Antico Vinaio. That was a fun trip. The apartment was the cutest and I loved the layout very much. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay and excellent host

The location of the property is amazing. Major attractions are in walking distance. It has parking spot which was a great relief for us. On top of that, the property was so peaceful and comfortable. The best part of our stay was the host. She was super nice and helpful. My wife was not feeling well in the morning and she allowed us to use her space until she gets better. She helped a lot while she was recovering. One of the best stay I have ever had.

Very lovely place

This place is awesome! It is sotuated very close to the city centre and has parking available. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. The beds are good quality and the room is very lovely with brick ceiling. The only little minus was that the towels smelled bad, like they hadn’t been washed warm enough. They had a sour stench to them.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately we were automatically moved from the Sun House to a large Hotel a few blocks away. It completely changed the vibe of the trip for us. We were after a quaint, quiet location with its own kitchen and outdoor space. What we received was a bustling, loud, overfilled hotel lacking all the reasons why we chose the Sun House. More than disappointing.

Perfekt sted til lille Firenze-ferie

Stor tak til vÊrten pÄ dette fine lille overnatningssted for godt vÊrtsskab og gode tips til Firenze ved vores ankomst. Vi var glade for bykort med fine anbefalinger som var med til at sikre os et rigtig fint 3-dages ophold i byen. Dejlig stor seng, fint med udendÞrs siddepladser i gÄrden og pÄ tagterrassen. Dejligt at kunne lÄne cykler, sÄ vi let kunne komme rundt i byen. Uvurderligt med gratis parkering den lille gÄrd. LÊkker bager lige udenfor dÞren med coffee-to-go. Restauranten overfor derimod ikke god. Let at kÞre ind i byen til overnatningsstedet.

Piacevolissimo soggiorno presso Sun House! La proprietaria ci ha accolti con gentilezza e premura, consigliandoci anche alcuni posti dove andare a mangiare e quali attrazioni visitare. La stanza Ăš spaziosa, con letto comodo e servizi in ottime condizioni. Inoltre gli ospiti hanno a disposizione una piccola cucina comune accanto alla reception e delle biciclette per girare la cittĂ . Dunque la struttura offre un ottimo rapporto qualitĂ -prezzo (in cui Ăš incluso anche il posto auto, cosa da non sottovalutare a Firenze!) e vanta di una posizione comoda, appena fuori dal centro storico (raggiungibile con una breve passeggiata lungo l'Arno).
