    Nothing

    Reasonably quiet location, beautifully furnished by Rachele who has obviously travelled a lot herself. She makes sure there are plenty of coat hangars (rare), lots of nice little personal touches like a lolly jar (dangerous because the lollies are too accessible!), the bed is comfortable even in the heat we experienced every day, and there is a/c. Moreover, there’s a washing and drying machine that is a real boon if you’re there for a week or so. The double glazing is very effective against heat and noise. BRILLIANT STAY!

    The air conditioning unit while nice to have doesn’t really cool down the whole apartment and can be a little noisy. The main bed is also a little firm but I think some people would be fine with it.

    The apparent is beautiful, stylish, and very clean. It has a lovely kitchen and bathroom that we loved using. The location is amazing and it is only a short walk to the main sites. Our host was incredibly nice and super helpful upon arrival and she even went to the effort of bringing us a new toaster when the one in the apartment wasn’t working properly.

    The place is simply luxurious – spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location couldn’t have been better, with easy access to all the main attractions, restaurants, and shops. But what truly made our stay special was the host! She is the kindest, most welcoming, and attentive person we’ve ever met.

    Beautiful, classy accommodation in Forence

    We stayed for 4 nights. During our stay in July it was quite hot in Florence. The AC was NOT sufficient or up to it for this apartment and VERY noisy. I did not get good nights of rest because of this. I suggested and requested extra fans, but this was not supplied.

    The apartment was super nice and very classy. The interior is beautiful. Very good quality linen and towels, even bath robes. We were very greatful for all the small extras that made it very good. Rachele really thought of everything and more. The washer drier machine was great. There was even a sowing kit. This apartment is really 5star. Although we also received this free of charge from all our other accommodations throughout our tour of Italy, Rachele made up the sleeper couch, and also, we could stay slightly later e.g. check-out one hour later, so this was great. Rachele gave us a suggestion of a nice restaurant, and also good advice on how to get to the taxi's to get to the look out point.

    Everything was excellent and one of the best apartments we have stayed in. The apartment was very well equipped, everything you could possibly need had been thought of. The host was very friendly and helpful. The apartment is in a good quiet location with a short walk to station and city sites. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

    Nice spacious apartment in a great location. Close to the rail station and within a 10 to 15 minute walk of the main attractions. The host (Rachele) couldn't do enough for us and was there to meet us when we arrived giving us a great overview of the apartment and it's facilities. We could nashe her with any questions and would a response within minutes.

    Rachele, our host was very accommodating as we arrived earlier than scheduled, she graciously, was able to let us in to the apartment. Everything in the apartment was perfect, to the smallest detail. Comfortable, & very clean, we arrived when the weather was still very hot. It was a blessing to have an air conditioning unit in the apartment. Rachele, is wonderful, and we highly recommend her property.

    The hot water supply was not stable. My hot water turned cold in the middle of shower and returned back after about a minute.

    The property is very clean. The mattresses are super comfortable. We got plenty towels, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Good location, we could walk to all tourist sites. The host was really nice and answer our questions instantly. The check-in and check-out was simple and smooth. It’s our first experience stay at a private property other than hotels. I heard bad things about stay at private properties. However, our experience was nice and smooth. We will definitely return to this place.
