In the heart of Firenze

This was one of the best experiences I’ve had on VRBO. Jaqueline (host) was absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend staying here. The place was clean, had all the essentials and Jaqueline was extremely accommodating in the she booked us restaurants and car service. Grazie Jaqueline, we hope to see you again!!

Perfect Location

We LOVED this apartment. It is right outside a market - and at night, we were treated with music from various violinists, celloists, guitarists, etc. who played after the market closed shop for the day. The host provided a list of restaurant recommendations that were not your average tourists spots - and they did not disappoint. The wifi worked well. And the apartment is in walking distance to all of the main areas in Florence. We will undoubtedly use again when we return.

From the graciousness of Jacqueline, to the tranquility of the apartment, and the amazing location overlooking the market during the day and musicians at night, my sister and I had a wonderful stay in Firenze. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful!

Amazing apartment that looks even better in person. The location is central to everything and really places you in the middle of the action. We loved everything about the place and would return again. The only potential downside (which did not bother us) is that you will hear some noise from people outside enjoying the city in the evening.

Great apartment in central Florence

The apartment was beautiful. The two bedroom/two bath arrangement was perfect for my adult daughter and me. We were right across from the market, and at night, we would hear either a violin or cello being played in the loggia space. Great place to stay in Florence.

Place was beautiful, centrally located, and convenient. But the manager of the property was even better. She was knowledgeable about Florence, and provided us with great information about where to eat, drink, and visit. She made reservations for us! Best manager I've encountered. Because of her, we will be back!

What a great location! This place was perfect for 4 adults. One room was quite small with a small bathroom, but that is to be expected in such a city. The AC was crucial and kept us cool. Jacqueline was super helpful and accommodating. Thumbs up all the way.

Perfect location. Jacqueline made check-in easy, found us dinner reservations our first night and helped us get a taxi to the airport! AC was welcome. Nightly music from talented buskers below our window who used acoustics of Mercato Nuovo loggia for performances.

LOCATION!!!

Absolutely beautiful apartment in the heart of the incredible city of Firenze! One block from the Ponte Vecchio, and about three blocks from the Duomo. You can literally walk to everything you want to see in Florence from this apartment. The beds and pillows were comfortable, and the apartment was perfect for our visit. The host, Jacqueline was super nice and accomodating, and nice enough to point out multiple bars, restaurants and things to see and do nearby. Do not hesitate to stay in this gorgeous historic apartment.

Wonderful Florence home base

The residence was delightful. The location was wonderfully located. In the evening we could look out the window and hear an opera singer and one one night a cello. The air conditioning was wonderful. The floor plan was comprised of two bedroom suites on opposite ends of the space. The ceilings are high and the floors are wood. I felt like a princess in Italy..

Great Location

Great property in a prime location. The wifi was out for part of our stay and communication from the host was sometimes slow (probably due in part to the wifi). Nonetheless, the host was very pleasant and we would have extended our booking an extra night but did not get a response to our request until past check-out so we made other arrangements.

Great apartment and location

The apartment is exactly as in picture. Very clean.. Location is exactly in the center of the center. Kitchen fully equipped. We were charged extra 30$ for late checkin - even though I was updated I don’t understand why to charge extra for it. I would recommend to friends and will return.

Beautiful Apartment - Close to Ponte Vecchio!

This apartment was perfect for our visit to Florence! It is very close to Ponte Vecchio and there are tons of restaurants and shopping options within walking distance. It is located right next to Piazza del Mercato Nuovo where vendors set up their goods to sell every day. Communication with Jacqueline was fantastic, she greeted us at check in and provided us with a lot of restaurant options as well. The property was clean and was perfect for our 3 night stay in Florence during our tour of Italy with our two teenage boys. It is either a short taxi ride or even a walk from the Santa Maria Novella train station. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
