This was a fabulous place. Incredibly clean, modern and bright! The location was fantastic, close to the center but not so close that you deal with crowds, just a lovely old school neighborhood. Diana was always very attentive. we would stay here again in a heartbeat. One thing to note is that the internet was sometimes not stable enough for work-related high zoom meetings etc. That is a small thing though. This place is worth it!

Diana’s place is in an amazing position. She provided earplugs which was much appreciated & needed. When booking just consider whether you can carry your luggage up 88 steps but it is well worth doing so. The view from the windows is extraordinary.

Perfect base to explore Florence from. Apartment is spacious, clean and well located. We really enjoyed our stay at Diana's apartment.

I’ve been to Florence many times and I’ll tell you this is the perfect stay. It’s central, beautiful, full of stuff to do and also pretty quiet for the city center! Also, the backyard is beautiful and huge. Don’t miss the wine bar Next door.

“...Beautiful view from this spot. Surreal. Also it felt very safe here, which was important to us. We could happily walk down the street without worry.”

The apartment in the old palace is huge, even the bathrooms. As it is an old building, the second floor is really high. The plus side is that the rumours from the street are muffled, but if you have a heavy suitcase, get ready for a lot of stairs. Kitchen is equipped really well. A supermarket where you can get groceries is just across the street, so are a couple of nice bars and restaurants. You will be practically in the heart of Florence, a few minutes away from the Duomo. Great location.

Very well located apartment, that is good value for money. It’s small - but that is to be expected for the area and is not really a problem in Florence where you spend all day seeing things.

We are a family of three, with a toddler. The apartment is beautiful. So much character, an authentic sense of history. It was it had all the useful kitchen items we needed, the beds were comfortable. Best thing is the location - noisy at the weekends but the view is incredible and being able to walk to everything was a huge bonus. Diana is a helpful and friendly host. We hope to return.

Lovely apartment - spacious, comfortable, and beautifully furnished. Kitchen was fully outfitted. Bathrooms were spotless. Quality linens. Great location with grocery store and restaurants very close by. Museums, points of interest, and shopping were within 15-30 minute walking distance. Diana and her team were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

We absolutely loved our stay. You do have to climb stairs to the unit, but it’s totally worth it. Once you get up, having the windows open is awesome! The air conditioning works great. With windows closed we did not hear any noise at night and slept very well. We would love to return!

This place is a dream- with a view of the Medici Chapels right outside your window and beautiful furnishings, it feels like it is out of a movie. It’s very spacious for a couple and was also very clean. The location is extremely central, right near the Duomo, San Lorenzo church, Medici Chapels & Palace. Nothing in Florence was more than a 15 min walk. The streets are lively, but very quiet and peaceful at night. Diana was super helpful and allowed for us to even check in early. Highly recommend!

Excellent ! Tres bel appartement, spacieux (nous etions 6 et chacun avait son espace et son intimite), tres propre avec mobilier de qualite. Proche de tout ( a deux pas du duomo) dans une rue animee mais paisible. Hote tres reactif, accueillant, l'arrivee s'est tres bien passée (Yelena qui nous a acceuilli etait adorable), instructions tres claires. Nous etions ravis !

The best location in Florence! This apartment was the absolutely perfect way to start our Italian honeymoon! The apartment was pristine, well equipped and had everything we could ask for! The views from every window made it such a memorable experience! Thanks Diana! We would love to return one day!

Very much enjoyed my stay! Everything I needed was provided in this thoughtful and stylish space. Location is very walkable; it is close enough to all the main sites but far enough to be peaceful. Comfortable linens and pillows. Safe, clean. Used a lighter from drawer to light stove. Shower was small but usable. It wasn’t too bad, but I opened the bathroom window to help with mild damp smell from time to time. The company arranging it (Acacia) seems well organized and responsible. Host was very responsive and friendly, especially when I needed some extra advice due to delayed luggage and had questions about transportation. I very much appreciated the gracious support. Overall really enjoyed my stay here, a wonderful way to visit Florence!

I can’t think of a better location in Florence if you want to stay away from the touristy area. Easy walk to amazing restaurants and attractions. Highly recommend. The host is top notch.

This is a great place with a fantastic location! Wonderful restaurants are everywhere easy walk to the museums and across the bridge. Diana was the best! She met us and walked us to the place, gave us a map of the area and great recommendations, even showed us how to use the coffee machine. It has a wonderful balcony and air conditioning! We had the best time here and I highly, highly recommend it! Thank you for a great experience!

We loved the apartment. The layout of the space is fantastic. It’s very quiet with the windows closed or you can open them and enjoy the excitement of city life. There was a parade down our street and we stood on the balcony and watched. Great fun! Amazing walking location to EVERYTHING in Florence we wanted to see. Beds are very comfortable. We cooked a fabulous dinner one evening but ate out mainly. Many good restaurants close by. Thank you for our wonderful stay in Florence.

Stayed in Deanna’s unit for 7 weeks. Incredible place in a fabulous location. Made our Florence immersion very easy. Everything was better than expected! Will try to get back again! Unit provides all that is necessary for a wonderful stay. One of the best places I’ve stayed on AB&B. Highly recommend! Everyone helpful! Thanks! Grazie!

This is a great apartment across the river from the tourist area of Florence. It is easily walkable to everything but in a quiet local neighborhood. The apartment has been recently renovated in a modern style and is very high quality. The open kitchen and modern baths are exceptional. The layout works perfectly for four people with a in suite bath and large closet in the primary bedroom and a hall bath next to the second bedroom. However there is a door between the kitchen and hall which essentially creates an in suite bedroom and bath. And finally Diana is a true super host. She arranged for taxis and patiently explained how to operate the AC. A wonderful stay!
