Great location beautiful rental

We were a group of 7, all adults this location was great. 10 to 15 walk to almost everything. The rental was great, and beautiful. This may have been my fault but we had an elderly person with us and it was a little hard for her to use the stairs, but we made it work. Both bedrooms are up on top of 3 floors. Middle flóor was the loft which had a sofa bed. Overall I thought the vrbo was great. Thank you

Fantastic flat in the heart of Florence

My family and I enjoyed our stay at your place in Florence. The location was perfect and we had plenty of space for all six of us to sleep and each shared a bathroom/shower with one person from our group. Definitely will come back and stay at your place again. Thank you.

Amazing location and lots of steps!

The apartment is exactly as pictured - great space for a family or large group. We used the kitchen every morning for breakfast and sat around the table every evening sharing stories and playing games. The location is amazing - you can walk to anything from the apartment within 15 minutes (the train station, every major attraction and great shopping). Be aware, that if you have anyone who is not super mobile, there IS an elevator to the apartment, but within the apartment itself all of the bedrooms require very steep stairs. We would stay there again - super quiet, very clean and fantastic location.

Iconic Florence Stay

This was my friends and I first time in Florence, we wanted a place close to the action so we could walk places. This was the perfect location for us, right near the river, near shops and restaurants, and a close walk to all of the sites. Also, big bonus in the Italian summer it had AC. We loved the aesthetic of the home, it was classic and beautiful. Plenty of space for our group which had 5 of us and a baby. There are quite a bit of stairs, so make sure you are comfortable with that. If it’s not an issue, than this is the perfect spot. The hosts were very easy to communicate with, and the check in process was easy as well. We definitely would stay here again if we were in Florence! Thank you!!!

Florence with family!

Our family really enjoyed this apartment! There are 3 levels, with the loft and bedrooms at the top which we didn’t fully realize when booking, but it made for a lot of extra space. The extra large living area downstairs, high ceilings and 3 bathrooms were great. With a lot of original character, the apartment still felt new and clean. We would definitely stay again.

Great location

Great location and easy access to most of Florence. The apartment was lovely, plenty of space for us all and AC units in each bedroom. The only issue we had was accessing the apartment, we didn’t receive check in access and had to call to receive it. But otherwise all was wonderful and perfect for us.

Great Apartment in Fantastic Location in the heart of Florence

A great apartment in the heart of Florence. A quick walk to all the local attractions with great restaurants just outside your door. Check-in was easy and the apartment was well setup with all of the necessities you would need. Lots of room on 3 floors for our family four to stretch out. Would definitely recommend.

Not for older people!

The apartment was spare but fine - nothing fancy but comfortable. However, what isn't mentioned is that there are very very steep and narrow stairs throughout that are dangerous for little kids or older people. And while there is an elevator, it stops 8 steep steps before the apartment door.

The house is a mix of modernity, as very comfortable and very well equipped, and ancient materials. Everything is beautiful and made to feel that you are good, while respecting the Tuscan spirit. We want to thank Gaia for being so accommodating on such short notice. we are sure to return!

Beautiful apartment and very gracious host.

The apartment is beautiful, spacious and in a great location. It's walking distance to everything but not too close to the noisy, crowded areas by the Duomo. Our host was very helpful and accommodating and informative. I would 100 percent recommend this apartment. We had a wonderful experience and anytime we had questions we were able to stop in next door where the host worked and ask questions, which he graciously answered. Loved this place!!!

Great Apartment!

Pictures are exactly what you see. And description is accurate. Location is perfect. The only slight thing is the stairs up to the top floor. They are steep and narrow - be careful. I wouldn't recommend children on that level, however the loft would be great.

Great location. Front door entry wasn't great. I couldn't get it to work on my phone, but it worked for my wife. The stairs are rough, so not a good choice for the elderly. We managed but it wasn't fun with luggage. Location was perfect. Close to everything but not a real busy street. Overall a nice place.

Great location

This location couldn't have been any better. It is close to everything. We had a good stay and lots of great memories. Finding the location wasn't easy apple maps had us a block away, the instructions via email didn't help much and communication with the host was hit and miss. It says it sleep 7 and that is really pushing it. The listing say 3 rooms in one spot and 4 rooms in another spot. It’s 2 rooms an a loft and there is a cot for a 7th person you can pull into a room or the loft. The apartment is much darker than the pictures lead you to believe. We had lots of stairs everywhere we stayed in Italy but this place had by far the most. If you don't have someone with some muscle this isn't the place for you if you have suitcases.
