My daughter and I fell in love with this property. It was just right for the 2 of us gals and we missed it as soon as we left ! Great location, lots to do nearby.
Very nice room, being a big man,getting in the shower was challenging...
I gave 4 stars on overall review because of the bed...it's a small bent Ikea with an even smaller lousy matress...wink wink!
Other then that it's really a great location.
Close to train station and many of the classic attractions.
It was very close at the train station (firenze santa novella). Very easy to find as well. The place was very nice and cozy. It is also equipped with a kitchenette. I wish I could stay longer because it was very comfortable place to stay in. Thank you for hosting me.
This apartment was perfect for me as a solo traveler. Less than 5 minutes from Santa Maria Novella station and just a short stroll to the Arno River. Spacious clean and very secure. The kitchenette was perfect after a long day out exploring. Thank you to the host Carlotta and her colleague who provided a lot of useful information regarding my stay 😊
Loved everything but the ladder stairs which were a little scary. Everything else was great and location couldn't be better. Very clean which was most important. Many thanks.
It's close to the station Firenze SMN and very convenient for travelling around Tuscany.
Of course, you can go to all places in the historical district by foot.
The room is very large and has a variety of kitchen tools, so it is suitable for a long stay.
However the price is reasonable.
Very good location 5 minutes from train station and 10 to the duomo, 20 to ponte vecchio, however, high tourist traffic so very busy and lots of rattling wheeled suitcases. Also the restaurant next door was quite noisy at 4.30am on the Saturday night. Apartment itself was very good, although the mezzanine steps were steeper than they looked in the photos, otherwise excellent.
Great stay!
This was a great place to stay while quickly in Florence, close to the train station and so many good places to eat. Apartment was clean but a little confusing the first time to get into, but luckily we got the hang of it. Street below was a little noisy at night but nothing out of the ordinary for being in the city. Would absolutely book this again if I returned to Florence, can't go wrong with this place. A/C unit worked to perfection in the summer.
We were very pleased with the property. They let us check in early and were very accommodating to our needs. We were 2 friends traveling, so we had them make the beds into 2 twin beds. My only complaint was that the bed was not very comfortable and I ended up putting the mattress on the floor, which made it much better. Overall all though, a great place to stay.
The place was spacious and very clean. It was in a fantastic spot just minutes from the train station and all monuments we wanted to see. I was a little nervous because it was cheaper than some of the other spots we found but there were zero issues the place was incredible. The door wasn’t very difficult to use as some others said and the air conditioning was a huge relief in the heat. The only thing worth noting is that the ladder to the bed is quite steep so if you have any mobility issues it may not be your place but we would 100% stay again in the future!

Unit is located just minutes from train station and within walking distance of all tourist destinations in Florence. It is quite noisy till early hours of am, but earplugs help with this. Beds are up on a loft with steep steps, so this may presesent a problem for some. Communication on how to access unit was good, as mutiple doors need opened to access unit. This made us feel safer. A very good value for all things considered. Lots of dining options in immediate vecinity.
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was right next to the train station so access was very convenient with large luggage.
The check in process was smooth and flexible as well.
There was plenty of space in the apartment with the main floor and the loft so we didn’t feel cramped at all. The stairs to the loft are a bit steep so I would just be aware of that but it posed no issue to us. At night it could be loud from the street at times but we turned the fan on and it solved that right away.
Would absolutely stay here again!

excellent location , close to train station.
walked everywhere in Florence from this location and train station was only 5 minute walk as well. Had problems finding room as address sent to us was not complete. Once actual address sent to us no issues finding it.No air which we knew and room was hot even at end of Sept.. Stairs to loft where bed is really is more of a ladder so mobility challenged beware. Location EXCELLENT .

Great value for money. Great location!
We loved our time in Florence! The apartment was a short walk from the train station and so easy to walk to everything else around Florence, great location!! Although in a street with a lot of foot traffic, the apartment felt safe and secure behind multiple locked doors before getting to the room. It was tidy and clean. Plenty of room and a decent size kitchen if you needed to cook. There is no air conditioning however the host provided two fans which did the trick. Overall really great value for money and we had a great stay! The only thing to improve would be the check in process as we were initially confused as to which apartment it was and the host was at work and didn’t reply straight away, however all was well and we were checked in within 15mins of arriving.
The place was clean and the person who let us in was nice, even though her English wasn't good. The only strange thing that happened was the owner messaged me asking for me to leave him $60 more for "staying another day" which we absolutely did not do. We checked out by 10am. So, I messaged him back and said we didn't stay another day and that I wouldn't be leaving extra money (not that I even could since we were already in our next hotel by the time I read the message). He never replied. We haven't seen any extra charges on our credit card, so hopefully all is well.
This place was a little bit hard to fine, but the homeowner came out and showed us in. It was really nice. It was super close to the train station and just a good area to walk five minutes down and you’re in a nice tourist location. I had a couch downstairs and then a bed upstairs. There wasn’t air-conditioning but there was two fans the fan up above makes a very annoying sound so don’t use it. it was kind of a track to get up the stairs and then through like three doors but it was worth it for how close we were to the train station because we had very early trains to catch. outside of the place, there was a man just standing around, which is a bit scary but I think if you’re not coming home super late you’ll be fine, especially with a lot of people out during the day walking down the street. I just I would stay here again in Florence if I have the chance.
