Good location
The stay was amazing. Location is great. Although they miscalculated our per person tax. Wasn’t able to give us back the change. We didn’t have time to go to their office located a few blocks from the apartment we stayed at. Overall great. The kitchen is complete with everything you need to cook basic food. There is a fridge and freezer. Could actually bed 6-7 people. Lots of space and has 2 bathrooms for our apartment. Has a nice balcony too.

Pros: good location, space, amenities and self checkin. It was few min walk from major tourist spots, few meters from the train station connecting to the airport. We got an apartment at Via Benedetta 1st floor that comfortly accommodated 3 adults and one baby (1 bedroom, 1 baby cot, 1 sofa/bedroom). It had high ceilings, a indoor terrace and the master bed wouldn't even make any noise when moving. Self checkin was easy with the app, getting the keys one block away. Short distance from Grota di Leo, Arts Inn and 13 Gobi. Cons: few details to be aware Bathroom looked like recently renovated but the shower boxe had a gap and water would leak through it. City tax paid only by cash (might not be the hotel's call though). We could hear the neighbours but that's expected for this type of building in the city center. Being 3 stars, they had a sign in the door asking you to take out your garbage few meters away and no towels were changed during 5 nights stay but I did not bother checking if changing was included upon request.

Who’d stay in a hotel when you can have this?
Run by a lovely team of people who are always on hand to assist. Very convenient to Firenze SMN and the city centre; plenty of eating options. Has 2 balconies, and all the essentials for a lovely stay. The one thing I would say is you have to treat items e.g furniture, toilet flusher etc in the apartment very gently, or they may break. Very reasonably priced for such a spacious apartment. Would have no hesitation returning.

Great place for relaxing and great location
Location is excellent- very near train station, right on top of bus station for excursions. Very close to sites in Florence. The property felt spacious and homely. Wifi was good (for the kids!). Good amenities inside as well for cooking, clothes washing. We found it a lovely city and surroundings to enjoy and this apartment was a lovely place to return to each day.

A romantic gem in Florence
This apartment was amazing for us. The bedroom was spacious and the bed was very comfortable, for it was a real queen bed. The kitchen was great as it was well stalked with essentials for us. The location was very romantic and recognizable for us, so we never got lost. I would highly recommend this apartment!

We were very pleased with our stay at this cute 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment. They even had a large bottle of water in the fridge for us and left us a bag of vanilla wafer like cookies. The location was close enough to easily walk to Florence’s most important sites and the train station but was outside of busy night life and was thus quiet for sleeping. It was also a very short walk to a Hertz where we left Florence from to drive off and explore more of Tuscany. We would stay there again!

The office is really hard to find, we had to ask a few people on the street. After we met the staff, we were told the room was actually in another building on the next block, so we had to drag all the luggage s there. Not an experience we expected, but the room itself was clean and nice.

Immaculate!! This apartment was beautiful!! Our stay was perfect. Close walk to the train station, but still far enough that you are in a quiet neighborhood. This space had everything we needed, including kitchenware for cooking meals in room. Everything was spotless and new. The bathroom was spacious and spotless. Beds were comfortable. The balcony was a big plus and we had coffee outside. Check in was easy and our host was very kind and helpful. Thank you for cookies, coffee, oil, salt and pepper provided. We would recommend this apartment!!

Great location
The apartment is in an excellent location only 5 minutes to the Duomo and very close to the train if you want to use Florence as a base for day trips such as Siena. The apartment was very clean with a kitchenette that was really handy for breakfast and dinner if you wanted to stay in for the night. Please be mindful this apartment was on the top floor so there were some steep flights of stairs to navigate as there is no lift. It wouldn't be suitable for people who will struggle with heavy luggage
