Could not have asked for a better experience - in every way. The apartment was spacious and clean and in a brilliant location close to all the sights and landmarks. Our host Francesca was on hand if needed from start to finish, including the booking of transport to/from the airport. Overall, it was outstanding.

If there were 6 stars, we would give Francesca at the Palazzo Alfani all of them. She is a perfect host, the flat is spacious, right across the street from the entrance to the David. 4 Blocks from the Duomo, and close to great shopping. We loved it there.

Firstly this property is great for the price and location. It is huge and beautiful with high ceilings and a kitchen. The living room/kitchen is large and the bedroom is also large. One issue is that this property is right across from the Accademia, where David is housed, which is very convenient but it can be noisy at times. We didn’t get a car, and there where parking lots close by but it would not be easy to drive in this area. It is only about 1km from the train station though. Francesca is so kind and lovely and it was so nice to interact with her; she had many excellent recommendations. Big thanks to her!

Spacious, comfy and the best location.
Fantastic location right beside the museum housing David. Very central to everything, with a fairly short walk to the train station. Lovely bedroom and main room with high ceilings and large charming shuttered windows. Nicely updated bathroom and a little elevator which was convenient for getting luggage to room. The option to do breakfast just around the corner was really good for the price. We did the continental and really enjoyed it. The host/owner was wonderful and helped with any questions we had. We stayed in 3 different cities in Italy and by far this was our favourite city and accommodation.

A comfortable apartment right across from the David. This makes it a busy street with foot traffic throughout the day but you don't notice it once in the room. The host was very friendly and allowed us to let ourselves into the room when we were ready. Would not hesitate to stay again.
